The Archifest Pavilion is envisioned to be the physical manifestation of the spirit of Archifest this year
- Exhale.
It is imagined to be a temporary, outdoor recreational venue which reinvents our experience of a
public space in Singapore, providing a comfortable, unique and multi-sensorial experience of the
city to be enjoyed by everyone.

The Pavilion should serve as experiential urban respite and offer opportunities for users to reflect
and view the surrounding in a different light.
