vector-i designed this pavilion for Staatsbosbeheer (Dutch Forestry Commission). The design is the result of a collaboration between vector-i, i29, and Claudy Jongstra, which brought out the best in each of us.<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

The aesthetics of this symmetrical building, with a light rammed earth plinth and an exuberant wooden crown, emphasize the meaning that landscape architect Louis Paul Zocher (1820-1915) gave to buildings in “his” landscapes in the 19th century: “Architecture as an ornament for nature.”<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n \n \n <\/picture>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

The design stems from honoring the landscape, reevaluating our heritage, rediscovering craftsmanship, and using ecological materials in a circular relationship with nature.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n
