Edge Lounge and Restaurant, Niyama Resort, Maldives

Designed and constructed particularly for the Tribal Restaurant at the Niyama Resort, Maldives, the dining pavilions consist of a larger tensile structure encompassing the main dining area, and several smaller, private dome structures. The dome structures appear at once both lightweight and intricate, with a minimal structure supporting the PVDF-coated PVC fabric. At night, the fabric materials reflect light and appear to glow, resulting in a unique and calming ambiance at the resort.
