"Frozen Veins" redefines the Arctic research station not as a static shelter, but as an active climate infrastructure. Moving beyond visual metaphor, its faceted geometry is parametrically optimized to deflect extreme katabatic winds and prevent snow accumulation. The central hub connects to modular observation pods via structural 'veins'—infrastructural umbilical cords carrying geothermal energy and fiber-optic data. Utilizing a double-skin ETFE thermodynamic envelope, the pavilion functions as a vast environmental sensor array, translating glacial dynamics into a highly resilient, datadrive.
