2024 Ice Stations: Tessellation (Nelson)

With the 2024-25 academic year fast approaching, the MSoA is sharing beautiful photos and videos to celebrate this past year’s Ice Stations.

This project was designed and then built and installed by 1st year architecture students at Bell Park this winter (due to the unusually warm weather, the Ice Stations were not installed on Ramsey Lake are they usually are). Below are photos of the project and the video put together by the students which documented their entire Ice Station design-build process, from early ideas to the installation at Bell Park. This year, the Ice Stations were made with a minimum of 25% reused wood materials from previous MSoA projects, in order to reduce their environmental impact.

This station is called “Tessellation” and was designed and built by the students in Pamela Nelson’s studio group: Aditya Banerjee, Mark Atu, Darby Bailey, Amitej Bamrah, Aiden Brown, Zsofia Iszlai, Andreo Mendoza, Colin O’Neil, Rhys Price, Anna Sunil Alexiose, Goran Tse.

The Ice Stations are made possible thanks to the generous support of our main sponsor TD Bank, as well as the City of Greater Sudbury, which hosts the students projects, and Interfor, which supplies the wood.
