Archipro Architects created a 35 square meter meeting space
on a site 150 times as large. The architects recognized the
small structure would become an object in the larger site,
so they clad the building in a translucent film of corrugated
polycarbonate. Therefore it would stand as a strong, opaque
object during the day, while at night the film would allow
light from inside to seep out. Structurally, gate-shaped frames
are arranged in a row and covered inside with plywood for
lateral stability. Gaps were kept at the top and bottom to
allow light into the meeting room at the floor and ceiling,
while allowing light out in two bands at night, as mentioned.
