MASS Haptic timber pavilion

Gainesville, FL

MASS Haptic, located on the University of Florida's main campus, serves as an outdoor learning pavilion to explore contemporary wood construction and design. It showcases Florida's potential to use local timber resources for building sustainable structures. The pavilion provides a space for students, faculty, and the Gainesville community to engage with the tactile qualities of wood and understand its environmental impact. The project emphasizes the connection between building and its broader environmental implications, particularly in relation to the Southern Yellow Pine forests in the Southeastern U.S.
