This project aims to design a visually striking pavilion inspired by the tensigrity principle, situated on a cliff near Bhuj. The pavilion will embody structural integrity through a network of tensioned cables and compression elements, creating a lightweight and resilient form. The design process incorporating research of the topic "Dynamics of Diving", following the abstraction process and arriving at a form and iterative prototyping of testing the structure. The pavilion should seamlessly blend with the natural surroundings, offering a unique space for contemplation and interaction.

Exploring the dynamics of diving by observing the different motions and forces during the motion.
Abstraction Process
Transforming the 2D sketches into 3D physical models.
Digital transformation of the physical models and exploring structural possibilities.
Tectonics : Process models to test structural stability of the final form.
Case study : Sainsbury Centre. Structural Analysis of the building.
Final Design
Exploded Axonometric View of the pavilion.
