Camper Traveling Pavilion

Back

Designed for Camper, as one of the yacht sponsors for the Volvo Ocean Race, a global event that races to 10 ports along a 40,000-mile race course. The 2011 – 2012 race started at Alicante, Spain, then went to Miami, USA and ended in Galway, Ireland. The Pavilion was designed to be shipped around the world to various ports of call for erection. The purpose of the Pavilion was to provide a place for visitors to come at each port of call to relax, learn about World Yacht Racing and purchase Camper products. The pavilion was made of paper tubes, from the structure to the wall display and seating. A colonnade of 48 paper tubes was designed to nestle inside themselves for expedience during transportation. The roof was made from fabric and the floor from plywood. The pavilion was erected in 4 days and dismantled in 3 days.
