In this study, we contributed to the hands-on approach in 2 ways. First, the project has developed a
new pedagogic strategy for the hands-on project. The design/build project has been seen as an
integral part of the overall design curriculum. The central concept of design integration has been
strengthened by the closure of the course with a design/build project. The theoretical exploration
(the design studio training) and practical experiment (hands-on experience) form an integrated
approach to introductory design training. As shown in these 3 Pavilion Projects, we could have
different focuses and contents of design integration based upon learning objectives. The definition
of 4 different types of pavilion creates a learning situation within which a positive response to site
and the interrelationship between pavilions is expected. In addition, the definition of pavilions as
shading devices allows us to integrate environmental concerns into the design. There are other
possibilities for future exploration
