[02] Narrative

Zero new stone

Every kilogram of aggregate in Pavilion Zero came from a demolished 1960s housing block two kilometres away. The pavilion proves that low-carbon concrete can still be delicate.

Twelve thin shells, each 70 millimetres thick, span up to 14 metres. From the water they read as a single folded sheet of paper.
