COMPLUVIUM Pavilion / P+S Estudio de Arquitectura
COMPLUVIUM stands as an allegory to water, seeking to highlight the most characteristic climatic condition of Rouen and the wooded environment of Canteleu, the heavy rainfall that abounds throughout the year. It is a ‘spatial artifact’ with a timeless character, which, on the one hand, appears defined by a recognizable geometry, in evident contrast with the natural surroundings, and, on the other, attempts to subtly disappear through a work of linen and fiberglass skins, materials which, on contact with light, transform its appearance and end up disappearing in the landscape.
