Ephemeral All Soul’s Day Pillow Pavilion Puffs Up Using BBQ Smoke

Here's an awesome way to celebrate the dearly departed: roasting chestnuts under a giant, puffy pillow. Designed by <a href="http://www.overtreders-w.nl/index.php?sb1=project&amp;sb2=project&amp;sb3=dak">Overtreders W</a> for an art festival commemorating All Soul's Day, the ephemeral <a href="http://inhabitat.com/packed-pavilion-constructed-completely-from-cardboard/">pavilion</a> roof gets its form from simple smoke. While revelers roast their nuts and cook jacket potatoes in an outdoor stove, the resulting smoke is recycled and channeled to the roof via a fabric duct.

The All Souls Day Pavilion by Overtreders W features a unique fabric roof.

While celebrating All Souls Day, people roast chestnuts and jacket potatoes in a wood-fired stove.

The smoke created as a by-product is then harvested to blow up the roof.

Combined with picnic tables and the stove, the pavilion can accommodate up to 40 people.

Like many other projects featured on Inhabitat, the floating roof can be reused when it has served its useful purpose here.

While uniquely poised to generate an ephemeral feeling that peaceful souls are hovering nearby, this roof can be so much more.

The crazy floating roof is available for hire!
