CLOUD PAVILION

Festival Pavilion
De Zuiderlaaik, Het Twiske, Amsterdam



Set to be constructed in Het Twiske for the Lente Kabinet festival, the Cloud Pavilion is a temporary structure located along the lake’s shore. This multifunctional space is designed to host a variety of activities, including talks, gatherings, a festival dance floor, a bar, and art and performance displays.

Uniquely, the pavilion incorporates lake water as a key construction element, with the design inspired by the natural water cycle. Mirroring the fluidity of water, the Cloud Pavilion aims to create an immersive environment that envelops visitors, offering an experience that goes beyond traditional festival stage design.

 
Water is steamed into the space through pressurised hollow columns and collected through fog catchers textiles, redirecting the water in and out from the system.
