A pavilion may be full of visually appealing items loaded with contemporary ideas of fashion and even be challenging and trendy but at the same time with lack of all the other values that a space should have. The Barragan Garden itself is a piece that shouldn't be diminished, or lose volume and prominence. It isn't correct to take away protagonism to a piece with such character, with formal and challenging threats that only alter our senses and alienate us, to a point where we can't appreciate anything more than what is in our sight. If we only pursue visual value on an ephemeral item, the curiosity effect vanishes as soon as the user explores, and leaves the space. In this case of ephemeral architecture we need all the available resources that activate our memory to create a lasting impression and frenzy and curiosity state that leads us to tour the garden in slow motion at the beginning and speeding up the pace to run into the accent of our pavilion, which is indeed the subject of exposure, which now acquires a more powerful meaning; what a child can essentially discover in a garden, an adult can revive in this pavilion.
