Mu Tea Pavilion

Concerto of Bird-Cloud Mountain

Type: Group workshop, built
Date: December 2024 – January 2025
Tutor: Lifeng Lin
Location: Anji White Tea Town, Zhejiang
Materials: Scaffolding, steel mesh, bamboo strips

A pavilion built by hand in the tea fields of Anji. The team researched modular facade assembly and developed the design, choosing scaffolding, steel mesh and bamboo strips as the primary materials.

From the design invitation at the end of November 2024 to completion in late January 2025, we took part in every stage on site — scaffolding, foundations, structural framing and fixing the suspended facade. The finished pavilion was exhibited in Anji White Tea Town.
