Bufen Atelier's floating kiosk with three-toned marble facades in Beijing
Bufen Atelier has designed a floating kiosk along a tree-lined avenue in Beijing. The triangular pavilion is slightly elevated above ground, creating a sense of suspension. Its three facades are clad in gray-white, black-gold, and muted green marble. A circular opening interrupts the volume, with a copper component extending outward. The structure is conceived as an autonomous object, distinct from its urban surroundings. A concrete bench is embedded within the marble surface, contrasting rough and refined textures. Staff access is via a concealed marble door, with equipment integrated into the walls.
