J. Mayer H. creates striking cultural timber pavilion for German city’s tricentennial celebrations
A twisted temporary pavilion from J. Mayer H. is helping the German city of Karlsruhe celebrate the 300th anniversary of its founding.
The KA300 pavilion features a large auditorium with a stage and its design is a nod to the strictly geometric, radial layout of the Baroque planned city of Karlsruhe, with the palace as its focal point.
Erected in the city's castle gardens, the event pavilion will host concerts, theatre performances, readings, film screenings, and exhibitions, and also features a meeting area and café. Exhibition platforms, resting spaces and viewing platforms emerge over several layers in and on the structure, according to the Berlin-based architect.
Construction of the pavilion was completed in conjunction with Rubner Holzbau.
Celebrations in the southwest German city began on the 17 June and will run until September, after which the pavilion will be dismantled, transported and reused in another location.
Known as the ‘fan-shaped city’, Karlsruhe is the seat of the two highest courts in Germany, the Federal Constitutional Court and the Federal Court of Justice, and is also the centre of a thriving technology sector in the region.
