Modern Exotic Garden Pavilion Design by Paul Raff.




·         Here is Modern Exotic Small Garden Pavilion Design by Paul Raff.
·         The whole pavilion largely is made out of cedar wood and using large dowels and bolts to connect the pieces together.
·         The contemporary modern pavilion made by  Paul Raff occupies 12 meters square.
·         This pavilion is set in a private garden and the design was inspired by harmony with nature.
·         The pavilion is used for sitting and dining, and it could also be transformed to be used for concerts, and other social activities.
·         The layering of the wood is done in a way to create a complex relationship between inside and outside, producing subtle and shifting glimpses of light and ambience.
·         The woven elements create a constant interplay of light and shadow, connecting the sky to the earth.
·         To embrace its connection with the sky, a mirror is embedded in the surface of the dining table with creates reflections and an illusion like effect.
·         Similar to the traditional Japanese tea house, the pavilion is designed for both social engagement and private meditation.  
·         The natural building material used seems to fit perfectly with the nature around it.
·          Inside you will find two bunks seating and a table which is also made out of cedar wood.
·         The pavilion is protected with a reflective glass top which makes it more practical to clean as well as protects the wood from natural elements.
·         The cost of this pavilion is about 9000 US Dollars which is about 7000 euros and this covered both the material and the fabrication cost as stated by Paul Raff in an email sent to him regarding this issue.
·         Inside you will experience this light and shade where the pavilion allows you to catch the sun but in a calm and serene way.
·         In my opinion this garden Pavilion is very unique, cool, lush and natural hence it integrates with its surroundings without making a bold statement it just blends in nicely.
