Sukkah Pavilion 3.0
During a one week design/build project, I collaborated with fellow student William Nemintoff to design and construct a modern revival of the hundred year old Sukka, a traditional Jewish place of worship.
The Sukkah was on display for the week long festival and was used as a place of reflection and celebration.
The structure was constructed using a combination of CNC and hand-cut techniques.

The form in plan was derived using the parameters of a Fibonacci Sequence. The form is intended to draw the viewer into the center, towards the highest area of solidarity and reflection.
