01 · Module
One part, structure and enclosure at once
A triangulated steel module does both jobs, which removes the usual second system and everything that has to be coordinated with it. Repetition is what makes it fabricable at all.

Lightweave Pavilion
A single repeated module is a constraint that pays for itself in fabrication. The pavilion spends its variation elsewhere: in height and density, which is where it changes how the space is read.

Brief
The pavilion uses a repeated triangulated steel module to form both structure and enclosure, with shifts in height and density shaping circulation, light, and spatial perception.
02 · Variation
Height and density carry the design
With the part fixed, the remaining variables are how tall and how dense. Those two shifts shape circulation, light and spatial perception: the whole experience, from a component that never changes.
