Police Station as a 'Pavilion'
Police Station as a 'Pavilion'
Reconceptualising the police station as a pavilion prioritizes an open and transparent relationship with its surroundings. This architectural approach is a direct phenomenological response, addressing the consolidated nature of a conventional institutional space. The intention is to dissolve feelings of hesitation by creating a physically and psychologically accessible environment.The transparency serves as a functional and symbolic connection, manifesting the desired transparency in policing. By adopting the pavilion type, the design instills permanence and shifts the building’s image from an intimidating fortress to a pivotal, community empowering anchor. This adaptability allows for incremental expansion and spatial evolution, firmly rooting the built form as an accessible node in the neighborhood.
