Bamboo Pavilion Public Bathroom
Manuel Lap Yan Lam
Architecture, Building and Structure Design Bamboo Pavilion Public Bathroom by Manuel Lap Yan Lam Bamboo Pavilion is a public bathroom in Taipa Grande Hill Park in Macau, created through the renovation of an enclosed facility. The new building reuses the existing structure and foundation, so the footprint remains unchanged. The facade reinterprets the bamboo scaffolding long used in Macau. Hundreds of white aluminum tubes are staggered around the building to form a translucent shell. Daylight passes through the shell into the interior, while preserved skylights and tailor-made slanted windows with integrated openings improve cross ventilation. The renovation was completed in two months.
