Inspired by the atomy of a body of an insect Marcus designed the functions, entrance, visitors space and apiary, as oval spaces behind each other on a center line, the North- South line. The sinuous structure follows predominantly from the park itself, Marcus blends the pavilion’s rounded exterior into the park’s landscape with its façade treatment, further integrating the -bio basedbuilding within the ecological surroundings.
Appearing to swell, the structure forms three separate spaces. Located at a pinnacle on the north façade, the entrance leads directly into the classroom. From there, the apiary – where the bees reside – can be accessed. An opening on the building’s south façade bathes the hives in direct sunlight throughout the day. Adjacent to the southern façade, a sundial spreads across the ground to mark the time of day as well as the season – emphasizing the importance of the sun’s movement on the life of bees.
