Originally commissioned for Celebrating Sanctuary London Festival 2013, the Embassy for Refugees Pavilion is a small, demountable, temporary organic timber structure, created to explore concepts of sanctuary and representation for the underprivileged. With only 8 weeks between the initial concept briefing and final installation, the design and fabrication process was severely constrained. Design services were also provided pro bono, and the structure was constructed wholly with donated materials. The charitable procurement steered a number of design decisions, yet meant that many key inputs were unknown for a number of weeks. This paper outlines the parametric design approach that was adopted to overcome the numerous constraints and unknowns that this project faced. It describes the structural principles and key modelling decisions made, as well as the installation and future legacy. |
