Orchard Hill Pavilion (2025)
In Spring of 2025, the campus completed construction of an open-air Pavilion facility to be a valuable community asset, open for quiet contemplation and planned events. The project included an approximately 1,600-square-foot pavilion with a trellis-covered, 620 square-foot deck on one end and a 620 square-foot stone patio on the other. Generous stairs that meet the deck double as access as well as a small amphitheater. An accessible path leads visitors to the entry of the pavilion and toilet facilities.
Materials for the project include cast-in-place reinforced white concrete walls that diminish in height from one end to the other, opening the main space to both intimate and distant views of the site. The concrete walls are perforated with color channel glass openings, and the framed areas above the concrete walls contain light steel frames housing small color light boxes.
