Bird nest Pavillion

The project was first inspired by an artist, Tracy Emin; found objects that make visitors explore Folkstone. The idea was interpreted on a personal point of view. My found objects are being gathered and my routes are being diverted on a prominent site in the Harbour.
This is in a form of a Pavillion not only to house the existing sunday market but to accomodate different activities needed in Folkstone. The programme comprises; one flexible multi-function space. The Pavillion runs seasonal;

Summer; Pavillion to use for band stands, mini  concerts running in conjunction with the market. Triennial; Artist can use the space for exhibition.

Monthly; The multi function space can be use for different purposes depending on the needs of the town; Auctions spaces; Lectures; Seminars and meeting spaces.

Weekly; weekends; Sunday market and other related activities

Everyday; cafe, cocktails and breathing space or relaxation space.

When its empty; Pavillion to house the birds and sea gulls
