Trahan Architects creates "weightless" hand-bent steel pavilion in Arkansas

New Orleans architecture studio Trahan Architects has completed a performance pavilion made of weathering steel that is anchored by two ground points, making the structure appear lighter than it is.

The Performance Pavilion is located in the centre of a large lawn at Luther George Park in Springdale, Arkansas, designed in partnership with landscape studio Spackman Mossop Michaels. The structure will act as an event venue and a shade canopy for the public.
