Sustainable Danish Pavilion Design for Expo 2010 in Shanghai
Sustainable Danish Pavilion Design for Expo 2010 by Bjarke Ingels Group
For the sustainable urban development, Copenhagen-based architecs Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG) is designed the Danish Pavilion for the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, China. The Danish pavilion is a symbol of modern lifestyle, where the visitors are able to actually experience some of Copenhagen’s best attractions, the city bike, the harbor bath, the playground and the picnic. At the Danish Pavilion BIG relaunch the bike in Shanghai, as calm stroll with time to absorb the surroundings or as a bicycle trip, where the city and city life drift past. The building is designed as a double spiral with pedestrian and cycle lanes taking you from the ground and through curves up to a level of 12 metres and down again. In the heart of the pavilion the guests will find the Harbour Pool. Children can dapple their feet in the water and thus experience how it is like to live in a Danish city where the water in the harbour is clean. In the middle of The Harbour Pool, The Little Mermaid is sitting exactly as she usually sits in Copenhagen. The original Mermaid is visiting China as a concrete example of the idea that the Danish pavilion contains the real experience of the Danish city life.
