French term or phrase: pavillon
This is from a text talking about an art exhibition, in particular the French section:

"La pensée circule, dans la section française, mais aussi dans ses entours, jusqu’en France et vers l’étranger à travers diverses communautés. La communauté française des designers et architectes du pavillon;"

(later in the text) "ceci a suggéré que le propos s’échappe du pavillon et que des textes, des paroles, des projets soient portés à l’extérieur"

The only translation of "pavillon" that I can find that would fit this context is "roof" (maybe more figurative than literal).
