Pavilion architecture

Duduk-duduk is an informal Malay saying which describes a leisurely activity of sitting or relaxing while chatting or eating. This small pavilion is named after this activity to describe its potential use as a place to stop and rest for visitors visiting Kuala Lumpur’s Tasik Titiwangsa Park.

The building is located on the outskirts of the village, at the intersection of the renovated harbour, the newly landscaped park along the Linge River, and the town centre. Through this addition, the village, which has always had its back toward the river, is now connected to this tourist attraction. Locals is the gem that brings together all these different elements through its unique and well-thoughtout architecture and its central location. Notably, the carefully crafted wooden cladding, resembling a meandering river, adorns the glass facade as a tribute to the Linge River. The geometric shape of the building embraces the park and the harbour, w... Más

En el año de 2009, al sur del estado de Yucatán, un grupo de jóvenes estudiantes hijos de campesinos mayahablantes pertenecientes a la comunidad rural de Dzán, cuya actividad económica radica principalmente en la citricultura, impulsados por su temerario entusiasmo de trasformar su mundo, toman la iniciativa de trabajar en conjunto para contagiar a través de la ciencia y la cultura al sector más vulnerable de su población: los niños y jóvenes, cuyos índices de deserción escolar, drogadicción y falta de orientación vocacional iban en aumento. Así fundan la Sociedad Científica de Dzán, una organización sin fines de luc... Más
