Dallas Green (of City And Colour)
Dallas Green is a Canadian born folk acoustic musician formerly of the post hardcore band Alexisonfire.
When designing for Dallas Green, his themes within his music were the driving force behind the scheme. He sings about the simple things in life, such as love, loss, friends and family as well as his love for his country.
The main idea of the 'Green Pavilion' is it is to be as simple as possible, with its main job being to sit within the Canadian environment without much impact.
The pavilions main role is to simply protect the user from the harsh Canadian climate, therefore it is open on 3 of the four sides.
It utilises a heavy stone wall at the rear and on all sides, one of which protrudes out into the landscape, to act as an invitation and guide to frequent users.
The heavy stone walls acts to tie the pavilion with the ground, something I believe is important to the musician.
