Its spiraling ribs invite you to step inside, slow down, and feel the quiet rhythm of the space. As the sun shifts, the pavilion filters light in soft, patterned layers—creating a moving sensory landscape that gently alters mood and perception.

This project shaped my belief that architecture is psychological: the spaces we build can comfort, energize, and connect us. The Pluriverse Pavilion became a physical expression of that idea, a place where structure meets emotion, and where design becomes an invitation to feel.
