The Doral Park Pavilion by Douglas Wood Associates, Coral Gables, FL won the WOW! Award for best overall project. This piece, on the outskirts of Miami, was designed by internationally-renowned artist Michelle Oka Doner, who envisioned the structure as a “feral” gateway to the adjacent Everglades. The structure is reinforced concrete, strengthened by structural steel spines. A self-compacting mix with a 24inch spread was chosen to assure complete filling of the intricate forms. Flyash replaced 40% of the cementitious material and a 56-day design strength was specified. The completed pavilion spans 50 feet and extends to a height of 25-feet.
