CASE STUDY 2: DENMARK PAVILION,SHANGAHI EXPO

the Danish pavilion at Shanghai Expo

The Shanghai World Expo 2010, was part of a monumental event aimed to celebrate the rising of the Popular Republic of China, was also a unique showcase of temporary architectures, revealing the talent in this particular design field of both well established and emerging architects. the architect’s aim to create a continuous and unconventional exhibition space that the public could experience by bike, a traditional means of transport very popular both in China and Denmark (some 1500 city bikes could be borrowed for free at the pavilion).

The second reason was that a spiraling shape, combined with a small pool, would have permitted to ventilate and cool the pavilion naturally in the hot subtropical climate of Shanghai’s summer.

Drawing by BIG “The aim of the Danish pavilion was to create an opportunity for visitors to experience firsthand the feel of a Danish city. The theme of the pavilion was “Welfairytales”, a contraction of welfare and fairytale, presenting new images, new ideas and new knowledge of how Denmark combines sustainable cities and a high quality of life” (from the Expo 2010 Danish Pavilion’s press release).

The form that BIG developed for the pavilion was actually a double loop, a sort of knot 39 feet high and 164 feet across, shaped so that the ends of the spiral connect to form a continuous path.

photographs by Iwan Baan load-bearing structure of the pavilion, designed by BIG together with Arup, was composed by a concrete basement, and two “curvilinear boxes” made in steel.

A hidden support, actually a truss, was concealed in the volume where the two boxes overlap, resulting in a partially-cantilevered building which, from some points of view, seemed to float in the air

Shops

the pavilion is a big loop on which visitors ride around on one of the 1,500 bikes available at the entrance, a chance to experience the Danish urban way.

MICRO 07

Both a thermal mass aimed to contribute to natural cooling and a symbolic element, a circular pool was placed in the heart of the pavilion.

The pool, filled with the seawater of Copenhagen’s harbor (whose cleanness is the result of a gigantic wastewater treatment project started 15 years ago), was also a reference to Denmark’s landscape and culture.

holes perforating it were arranged accordingly with the distribution of the structural stress, previously calculated through a FEM computer-aided engineering software.

Inside, the 32,000 square foot pavilion didn’t present a traditional exhibition, like those that many countries do when participating at a World Exposition, while it featured a small urban area to live into for some hours.

Taking the cue from the theme of Expo 2010, “Better Cities Better Life”

DESIGN STRATEGIES

TWO-FLOOR DESIGN WHERE THE CAFE IS ON THE GROUND FLOOR WHILE THE WORKSHOP IS ON THE 1ST FLOOR, THE DESIGN HAS TWO ACCESS POINTS, THROUGH THE RAMP OR THE CAFE. THE RAMP CUTS THROUGH THE FUNCTIONS ON THE TOP FLOOR. DUE TO THE SITE BOUNDARIES AND THE RAMP GOING UP TO THE 1ST FLOOR, DIGGING INTO THE SITE WAS NECESSARY AND THAT LEAD ME TO CREATE LEVELS AROUND THE CAFE. SINCE THERE ISN’T MUCH HEAD SPACE AT THE BEGINNING OF THE RAMP, MORE LEVELS HAD TO BE MADE WHICH ACT AS SEATING SPACES AND AN OUTSIDE THEATRE.

THE DESIGN HAD NO RELATIONSHIP WITH THE SITE OR THE ZONING, HOWEVER, THE GOAL IS TO TAKE THE SAME IDEAS AND APPLY THEM ACCORDING TO THE SITE TO ACHIEVE A BETTER AND SUSTAINABLE DESIGN.

'PASSIVE DESIGN' IS DESIGN THAT TAKES ADVANTAGE OF THE CLIMATE TO MAINTAIN A COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURE RANGE IN A BUILING. PASSIVE DESIGN REDUCES OR ELIMINATES THE NEED FOR AUXILIARY HEATING OR COOLING, WHICH ACCOUNTS FOR ABOUT 40% OR MUCH MORE IN SOME CLIMATES.

IT REFERS TO DESIGNING BUILDINGS AND SPACES (INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR) USING LOCAL CLIMATIC CONDITIONS TO IMPROVE THERMAL AND VISUAL COMFORT. THESE DESIGNS PROVIDE PROTECTION FROM SUMMER SUN, REDUCE WINTER HEAT LOSS, AND MAKE USE OF THE ENVIRONMENT (E.G. SUN, AIR, WIND, VEGETATION, WATER, SOIL, AND SKY) FOR BUILDING HEATING, COOLING, AND LIGHTING.

AR The Los Manatales

by Felix Candela The form of the shell was a play of the hypar with free curved edges, that is, the edges of the shell are parabolic and free of any edge stiffeners that would conceal the thinness of the shell. The groined vault consists of four intersecting hypars, a structure that he had not yet attempted.

AR The Expo 2000 Pavilion

by Shigeru Ban The Japanese Pavilion for Expo 2000, held in Hannover, Germany, was a grid structure made ​​ of recyclable paper tubes resulting in a building with honeycomb.

THE MAIN STRUCTURE OF THE PAVILION WAS MADE ​​ OF PRESSED PAPER TUBES THAT FACILITATED THEIR SUBSEQUENT DEMOLITION AND RECYCLING. THE SECONDARY STRUCTURE AND UNNECESSARY ACCORDING BAN WAS WOODEN. THE WAVY SHAPE CONSISTED CARDBOARD TUBES 440 12CM IN DIAMETER, WITH A LENGTH OF 40 M.
