As part of Kingston University Degree Show 2016, Unit 5 of the School of Architecture and Landscape Design have designed a new pavilion for the museum’s garden.
The 1:1 construction project work was established by tutors Takeshi Hayatsu and Simon Jones during their teaching, finishing with another pavilion in the garden of Dorich House Museum.
The structure itself is formed of three layers, each clad in different materials, Zinc, around one thousand shingles made from sweet chestnut logs, and on the final layer Yakisugi or Shou-Sugi-Ban, which literally translates as burnt cedar wood, commonly used in Japan for siding and decking projects. Visitors are able to explore the inside of the structure by climbing the ladder, enjoying the view of Dorich House Museum and Richmond Park through the windows or sitting at the table on the top layer.
