Nikau Pavilion

A landscape pavilion within an existing events venue in the Waitakere Ranges. The pavilion provides a flexible space for hosting events and weddings, nestled amongst native forest. The translucent roof and draped fabric ceiling are suspended over mass timber portal frames, and allow filtered natural light into the pavilion that shifts with the movement of trees and clouds above. Glazed walls can be pulled back to connect to the surrounding gardens and bush, with deep roof overhangs that protect the occupants year-round.
