balancing act: nature and humanity

The design approach of this Singapore-based interior design firm revolves around distilling a space to its fundamentals and considering the intent and objective to encourage interaction between users and their environments.

Please describe the design in your render

The studio envisions this pavilion as an ode to harmonious living, where humanity and nature coincide. It offers an opportunity to reconnect with our true essence, in a world where technology and modern lifestyles often distance us from where we belong.

Positioned amidst a bamboo forest, the concept embodies a simple yet profound “shelter,” blurring the line between indoors and outdoors.

Conceptualised to engage all the human senses, the space invites individuals to immerse themselves in an authentic manner. A seamless interplay of fluted elements and open design fosters a peaceful and composed experience, restoring the balance between humanity and the environment.
