Each designed with a specific user group in mind (Ladder Street, Harbourside and Causewaybay), the pavilions link the experience of spaces and metal stimulus together. The white pavilion – Causewaybay - provides a daily respite from the urban grind, where people can find solitude or inflection to secure their mental state of mind. The colour pavilion – Ladder street – focusses on colour as meditation elements, with the water pavilion – Harbourside – uses the material of water as mechanism to provide meditative stimulus within the short period of reprieve.
