Originated by this year’s theme – biomimicry – the design is specifically inspired by the deep sea world, where living organisms counteract the darkness of their environment by employing bioluminescence, often hypnotic pulsating light, as an attraction and communication mechanism.
All the surfaces of the pavilion are constructed from tensile textile modules that together create a pattern of openings and reveal glimpses of the interior. Focused LED projections present gradient color changes on the inside of the tensile structure, resulting in a constantly changing composition of light and colour.
