NABU Pavilions

Overview

A series of biodiversity-conservation pavilions developed in cooperation with NABU (Nature And Biodiversity Conservation Union), HTW Saar, and POHL Architects. The structures are built from fibre-reinforced plastics on the Voronax pattern — a generative shell topology developed by Programming Architecture — so that every pavilion is geometrically unique while sharing one parametric system. The pilot installation sits in Vienna’s Rochuspark.

Scope

In partnership with Pohl Architects, NABU (Nature And Biodiversity Conservation Union) and HTW Saar, OnceMore designed pavilions using the Voronax pattern and modern Fiber-Reinforced-Plastic (FRP) construction techniques.

Outcome

A repeatable yet customisable pavilion system, with FRP fabrication logic embedded directly into the parametric model.

Capabilities Applied

  • Voronax pattern generation
  • FRP-aware parametric geometry
  • Cross-disciplinary research collaboration
  • Design-to-fabrication continuity
