Inflatable Diamond Grid Eco-Pavilion by Various Architects by Evelyn Lee

Various Architects, Yorkshire Renaissance Pavilion, Sustainable Design, Collapsible Pavilion, Mobile Pavilion, Inflatable Design

Various Architects recently designed this striking Renaissance Pavilion for a competition to create a mobile performance space for Yorkshire Forward. Based upon a set of structural concepts perfected in their collapsible stadium, the inflatable event space is ultra-portable, generates all of its own energy, and is 100% recyclable. A gridded diamond facade conceals a faceted interior space reminiscent of the coal mines found throughout Yorkshire. The venue can be easily reconfigured to hold both small and large crowds, and it’s versatile enough to host everything from intimate gatherings to outdoor concerts.
