The Angsila Oyster Scaffolding Pavilion is located off the coast of historic Angsila fishing village in Chonburi Province, Thailand. Once a thriving small-scale fishing town, the Angsila community have struggled in the past decades to sustain their fisheries way of life due various factors- increased pollution to Bay ecology, poor sales due to price markups and by seafood middleman who diminish seafood quality due to poor storage techniques, to loss of younger generation to city migration. The Angsila Oyster Scaffolding Pavilion Project aims to re-vitalize Angsila's struggling fishing/seafood industry through the creation of a new oyster eco-tourism infrastructure prototype.

The pavilion design draws on and “bastardizes” the widely deployed bamboo scaffolding, traditionally used for oyster cultivation. The pavilion is composed of two parts- The permanent bottom portion is a fully functioning oyster farm, while the temporary top portion, a disassemble-able red-canopied bamboo platform, is utilized for demonstrations of oyster-cultivation, oyster-preparation, and oyster-tasting. Like the traditional oyster scaffoldings, the new scaffolding is built entirely by Angsila fishermen, utilizing local shallow-ocean bamboo construction techniques which requires no power tools. "Rejected" car seatbelts, acquired at discount due to discoloration from local auto plants, are used tie all of the bamboo members together. When not utilized as a tasting pavilion for eco/tourists, the covered platforms become recreational fishing piers for local fishermen, who bring their families to the platform with fishing poles, bait, and hook - to catch a variety of local fish, which are naturally drawn to the clean, shellfish-filtered waters surrounding the oyster bundles.
