AA SITE PLAN

A pavillion is a light temporary or semipermanent structure used in gardens and pleasure grounds. So as a proposition for Sevilla’s Alameda it would be a place of connection not just people but space and captured moments in time. The Alameda is a unique space in Sevilla as it becomes a gathering space during the day as bars, resturaunts and playgrounds are being used. During the Night the Alameda becomes a night life for students and people as bars open up it becomes a great place to hang out and experience. The propersition was go bulid within the Alameda and give a space in a space more use than just capacity and density. Allowing boundaries of trees guide the grid and design purpose to distinguise the purpose of the outside and inside experience. The Pavillion would be one point expereince as if would give the sound pollution a leveling and as Sevilla becomes hot it allows for gatherings to become more able with shade and a safety position.
