Capsule, 2022
A folly is a structure built mainly for decorative purposes, often designed to resemble something functional, or with such an extravagant style that it surpasses typical garden architecture. Namely, the folly is a temporal architecture in a non-routine and nomadic place. Therefore, people wandering around the folly were temporary residents in the pavilion but became travelers looking for non-routine enjoyment when walking between the follies. I aim to produce a sense of visual playfulness that the whimsical structure brings to the concrete jungle, through modular capsule design.
Dots, Lines and Faces
The structure is composed of fundamental geometric elements—dots, lines, and faces. The pavilion’s frame features linear grids, while holes in the pavilion represent dots, and the faces are utilized to define the edges of the structure.
The geometric shapes not only lighten the weight of the components, making them easier to transport, but also serve an aesthetic purpose as a folly. And cut-and-slot technique was used to make the structure easier to assemble and disassemble.
The repetition of geometric elements characterizes the folly. As people gaze through the pavilion’s intricate patterns and shapes, their attention shifts to the space around them, allowing them to appreciate the folly’s eccentricity. People’s gazes pass through the geometric patterns and shapes laid out on the pavilion, directing their attention to the surrounding space and encountering the eccentricity of the folly.
This capsule design has no special function; it hides the spatial relationships that set it apart from its surroundings and exists only for visual enjoyment and uniqueness.
