The Pavilion
Hazendal Wine Estate
Stellenbosch
2016-2019
Situated on an existing circular farm dam with axial views over the Stellenbosch mountain range, the pavilion straddles the edge of the Hazendal historical Werf. It’s a multi-functional space, which can accommodate anything from a jazz band with the audience relaxing on the rolling lawns, a wedding ceremony or even a car launch. This small structure is formed from white rendered concrete, using a double layered screen infill pattern on the sides, which provides a kinetic effect as the viewer moves around the structure. The play of shadow and light creates an interesting interplay between nature and architecture.
