connection between the Cyn and the

The pavilion and cyn are meant to
lie on a North South axis. The Cyn is
oriented southward for maximum sun
exposure. The pavilion's design
intentionally limits light from the south to
create a cave like feeling reminiscent of
the Gungywamp light chamber. The
restricted view reinforces the view of the
cyn, thereby creating a more effective
distraction.

The pavilion is a comfortable place for
many activities but, its primary purpose is
as a place to view the cynosure. Aligned
orientation and shared materials
strengthen the connection between the
two structures. By reflecting the forest, the
black glass of the pavilion conceals the
building. Similar glass around the cyn
makes the viewer more aware of the
subject matter being reflected. The
manmade copper armature of the cyn is
a poignant contrast to the untouched
surroundings. Copper's ever changing
patina makes it an excellent material to
convey the concept of marking time to
observers of the cyn.
