British Pavilion (UK Pavilion) at the World Exhibition in Shanghai (Shanghai World Expo) has become the most visible and innovative. It is not clear even to some branch of human activity attributed this wonderful masterpiece - whether in architecture, whether by design, either to advanced technologies...
The fact that this building, 20 meters in height, designed by Heatherwick Studio, consists of 60,000 thin transparent acrylic rods 7.5 meters long, ranging from wind. During the day, these twigs collected light to illuminate the interior inside. At night, the same inner light penetrates through every twig outward, allowing the pavilion glow in the dark.
