Akihisa Hirata Architecture Office's imaginative design for the Bloomberg Pavilion is memorable and dynamic. The complex structure is based on the combination of a series of isosceles triangles formed together. Its form is derived from a tree-like structure and is made up of metal pleated triangle forms that overlap one another.
These triangular forms act as a focal point for the pavilion's simple box-shaped structure. The built environment resembles an intricately folded origami piece while keeping its organic root-like aesthetic. The outdoor installation designed by the Japanese Akihisa Hirata Architecture Office will serve as a stage for various exhibitions taking place at the Tokyo museum of contemporary art.
This interactive art installation aims to exposure the public to culture and art by giving opportunities to young local artists and performers.
