Y Amplifajer for Mood for Wood 2025
Y Amplifier is a small pavilion realized within a ten day design build workshop, in which students collaboratively designed and built the structure on site. Responding directly to needs expressed by the local community, the pavilion serves as a quiet resting stop for wanderers around Strzeszyńskie Lake. Carefully positioned between existing tree trunks, it blends into its surroundings and appears almost as if it had grown together with the forest.
The spatial configuration unfolds fluidly into three directions, each framing a different aspect of the landscape. A low and wide entrance leads inside. A narrow and tall arm directs the gaze toward the marshland and the vertical layering of the trees, while a wider, nearly square arm opens toward the lake, offering a calmer and more expansive view.
All three arms converge at a central resting platform. Above it, a triangular roof opening frames the treetops and the changing sky.
Slightly elevated above the ground and built on minimal foundations, the pavilion minimizes its impact on the sensitive terrain. Slender timber posts and wooden slats with varying densities create a subtle interplay of light and shadow, reinforcing the pavilion as a place for rest, observation, and connection with nature.
