Scunthorpe Pavilion
March 2011
SPACE & PLACE designed The Scunthorpe Pavilion as a sculptural form in the park, establishing it in dialogue with the play area and the external event space (amphitheatre).
It is designed to complement the surrounding landscape design and regeneration of the park, addressing the human scale and the unfolding of the pavilion as an event in the park.
The tectonic screen wraps itself around the secure form, creating an interest through its refined ornament and sculptural wavelike effect.
Cor-ten (weathering) steel is used on the exterior of the pavilion – it is durable, vandal proof and its rust-like appearance of autumn tones fits well with the surrounding park landscape.
