This was our entry to the competition for the first Scottish Pavilion for the 2008 Venice Biennale. The budget set for the pavillion was £75,000 and was for a temporary pavilion to hold a series of lectures and debates as well as showcase Scottish Architecture during the festival. The design was derived from various Scottish sources and was seen as a space to walk through as well as stop in, as the theoretical site was one of Venice’s many Piazzas.
