Bay Pavilion Arts + Aquatic


Brilliance by The Bay


Bay Pavilions Arts + Aquatic is a unique community facility in Batemans Bay on the picturesque south coast of NSW.

The stunning natural landscape has inspired the building and features an organic design language that extensively uses sustainably sourced timber.

Using timber in structural framing, façade screening and internal finishes visually connects the different functional zones, contextualises the building and advocates for a sustainably built environment.

The framing showcases how timber can minimise embodied energy while creating iconic architectural forms. Timber façade screens develop a rhythm of light and shadow that changes throughout the day.
