Abstract

Like comparable facilities worldwide, Osaka Port is as much part of a transnational trade infrastructure as it is part of Osaka. Context here is more global and intangible than local and physical. This multipurpose pavilion for Osaka Bay is being developed as a prototype for what is anticipated to become an extensive global network connected by publicly accessible Internet links. The function is undetermined, and the building will be available for temporary hire by clients in both the private and public sectors.
