Architecture should not just house us, but breathe with the landscape. We design outdoor pavilions that act as natural extensions of the home, blurring the boundary between interior and exterior spaces.

The K Pavilion, illuminated at night, serves as the heart of the garden. This outdoor lounge binds the existing home to the landscape, creating a warm and inviting central hub for family life that is completely open to the elements.

The K Pavilion is designed to seamlessly connect an existing home with its garden. The structure creates a new outdoor living deck that overlooks the lawn, framed by delicate wooden columns that mediate the boundary between the built space and the garden.

This video tour of the K Pavilion shows how it functions as a seamless link between the garden and the home. The open-sided structure with its warm brick and wood palette creates a composition that connects all elements into a harmonious whole.

About Pavilions & Indoor-Outdoor Living

In our K Pavilion project, we used paired wooden fin columns to mediate the transition between the home and the garden. This structure serves a dual purpose: it acts as a thermal buffer that naturally cools the interior, while providing a lounge area that feels fully immersed in nature. If you are considering adding a pavilion, we suggest prioritizing your site's solar path to maximize shade and airflow without obstructing your connection to the landscape.
