This Oceanic Pavilion is absolutely incredible. Looking more like a new life form than a manmade structure, I feel like it could suddenly take off--even in these static images.
Designed by Emergent Architecture and Kokkugia, the Oceanic Pavilion is a concept for the Yeosu 2012 Expo in Korea. Yes, the Shanghai Expo has just taken off, but that won't stop people from planning.
According to the designers, the Oceanic Pavilion celebrates "the ocean as a living organism and the co-existence of human culture and ocean ecosystem."
