Makaibari Tea Pavillion : Award Winning-Architectural Project

Nestled within the lush expanse of a verdant tea estate, the Bamboo Tea Pavilion at Makaibari redefines the art of culinary spaces. This hemispherical marvel showcases bamboo's architectural prowess, emerging as a grand atrium with just two surfaces and eleven elegant ribs that split into fins at the base. Its shell-like design mirrors the gentle swirl of tea, drawing visitors into a central sanctuary that inspires awe and curiosity.

Perched on the undulating slopes of Kurseong, this pavilion blends visual simplicity with complex structural elegance. The seemingly modest exterior unveils a profound sense of wonder within, where access and egress create a seamless flow between the expansive outdoors and the sacred interior. The pavilion’s circular seating arrangement envelops visitors in a cocoon of tranquility, reminiscent of a traditional tea ceremony.

The meticulous use of bamboo enhances the pavilion’s integration with the landscape, fostering a deep sense of connection to the environment. The Bamboo Tea Pavilion at Makaibari stands as a testament to the limitless potential of sustainable design, harmonizing material, terrain, and architectural finesse into a captivating experience of form and space.
