News Story Summary:
The 'Macro-tent' is an offbeat ode to camping, playing with its codes through its geometry, its apparent lightness, its minimal footprint, and its textile materiality.
Also, it is assembled by person-power alone, without lifting motors, like a traditional tent.
Each of the pieces is handy, all the pieces are assembled on the ground to create the structure, which then rises by simply bringing the feet together like a folding camping stool.
Designed by collectif vous to accommodate five guests in the open-air hotel la belle folie, the SuperPausée offers two levels of suspended floors for a total area of 50 m².
Downstairs, the living room adjoins the covered terrace, which a removable textile allows to evolve into a winter garden according to the seasons, and to a technical unit grouping bathroom and WC.
Upstairs, a bedroom perched 4 meters above the ground opens generously onto the treetops, while opposite, a large outdoor trampoline allows visitors to enjoy the nights under the stars.
The high and low spaces communicate by a suspended stairway leading to a stair landing under a flexible canopy, ideal to read and rest.
Offering as many gables as there are cardinal points, the SuperPausée opens onto the surrounding forest landscape by four large triangular framings.
Placed on four specific supports, the project is built entirely in suspension, leaving the natural terrain intact.
The lightness of the project is also expressed in its cunning design: Its double textile envelope ensuring insulation and waterproofing, its handy-movable exo-structure, and its tensioning fittings.
