Local architecture firm Levenbetts adds to the [contemporary art scene](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/storm-king) with this trapezoidal white pavilion. The structure is erected on the grounds of an art center in Upstate New York. The project is endlessly interesting as it embraces a highly sculptural aesthetic. Dubbed 'Zoid,' it frames "[rolling fields and woodlands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/waterhouseoyama)" through the lens of architecture.

Levenbetts' white pavilion consists of six volumes that have a chaotically mismatched appearance when it comes to hight and width. The cluster forms a mini-courtyard. For one, this feature can be considered an opportunity for [public interaction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radius-transformation-pavilion) — both with the architecture and with each other. This adds a dimension of communal growth for the white pavilion. The space is simply furnished with wooden blocks that are provided as seating furniture.
