new: Structural Shingle Educational Pavilion

IKD has been hired to design an education pavillion at the Heritage Museum. Just as pine cones fallen from the trees through out the Heritage grounds spread their seeds to encourage more growth, the Heritage and their deep commitment to education will use the pine cone inspired educational structures to promote growth through the seeds of knowledge. Inspired by both pine cone structures and vernacular cape cod shingle construction throughout the region, the pavilion will utilize a new timber technology called Cross Laminated Timber or CLT to develop massive "cedar structural shingles" that will allow for a whimsical pavilion that merges structure and shingle into a single element.
