above are examples of the work of architect designer Thomas Heatherwick.A huge World Expo is due to open in Shanghai, China in May.
The theme of the trade show will be "Better City - Better Life" and aims to showcase Shanghai as a major world financial and cultural centre.
The UK's contribution to the Expo is a Pavilion designed by Thomas Heatherwick, whose centrepiece "Seed Cathedral" is a six-storey cube-like structure, pierced by some 60,000 transparent acrylic rods which quiver in the breeze.
I think it's the most incredibly beautiful Jurassic park
fiber optic christmas tree building you can walk inside. The scale is
incredible, it hard to believe it actually exists as a building.
it moves and gives with the wind, like seeds carried in the air.
would love to visit shanghai to see this building i think you have to
see it up close to believe it. It's named the Seed Cathedral.
beautiful name for fantastic structure.
