As part of the Boundary Topology series, Dual-Form Pavilion takes the
century-long evolution of the Shenzhen–Hong Kong boundary as its
design background. Rather than treating the boundary as a fixed division,
the installation represents it as a flexible spatial condition shaped by use
and activity.
Structure Design Process
Employing circular construction techniques and smooth poly-hypar surface structures, the installation realizes this concept by using the same set of straight rods and planar joints to form two configurations: the Linear Pavilion and the Cluster Pavilion.
Located in the Shenzhen–Hong Kong Central Park in the Hetao area, the project is first assembled as the Linear Pavilion and later dismantled and reconfigured into the Petal Cluster, demonstrating structural superposition across different spatial forms.
