尽管有巨大的拆迁及其产生的碎片,建筑活动仍然是不可或缺的。建筑思维必须围绕可持续发展、回收材料和资源而发展。
该展馆是一个希望的容器。

In spite of colossal demolition and the debris it creates, building activity continues to remain indispensable. Architectural thinking must evolve around sustainability, recycling materials, and resources.
The pavilion is a container of hope.

它建立在双重叙事之上–一个是来自无情拆除的碎片,另一个是建筑的诗学–诚实地承认材料和制造建筑的方法,这些材料和方法往往隐藏在它的皮肤之下,不为人知。

It is built on dual narratives – one of the debris from ruthless demolition, and another of the poetics of construction – an honest admission of materials and methods of making buildings which often remain hidden under its skin, unknown.

该建筑作为一个大的空间在一个单一的屋顶下展开,接触到地面,灵感来自于高知的许多屋顶。

The building unfolds as a large space under a singular roof that touches the ground, inspired by the many roofs of Kochi.

这个临时性的结构是轻盈的,因为它没有任何混凝土基座,而且可以被拆除,以取回其所有的材料,这些材料可以被重新使用或在其他地方重新组装起来。

This temporary structure treads lightly, as it stands without any concrete footings, and may be dismantled to retrieve all of its material that may be reused or re-assembled again elsewhere.

正是通过这种材料和方法,我们想庆祝,并提出在建筑的表现中所面临的痛苦、风险和挑战,这是一个我们认为美丽的结果。

It is through this material and method, we want to celebrate, and bring forth the pain, risk, and challenges that are faced in the manifestation of architecture, an outcome we deem beautiful.
