Set in the gardens of a retirement home, this wooden pavilion hosts a small buvette to serve cold beverages and snacks in summer. Open to both the home's private community on the southern path, as well as the public neighbourhood to the north, this permanent structure offers a tempered environment for the elderly who wish to spend some time doing a semi-professional activity.
The cabin is developed through a regular primary wooden frame, on the very exterior, which bears the secondary structure holding the three-ply spruce walls, accordion openings, as well as the furnishing. As such, only the floorboards, exterior counters and aerated steel roof are maintained directly to the primary frames.
Large openings on the extremities offer abundant spectacles to the user, with an unobstructed view of the goats enclosure on East and the gardens to the West.
