Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Porsche Pavilion by HENN is a Smooth Masterpiece

From its dramatic cantilever feature to its views of the water, this futuristic architecture piece is far from traditional, resembling a structure worthy of a sci-fi setting.

From mini-models to life-sized car creations, visitors are educated with the history of the luxe car company when inside the grand pavilion. The German architecture firm aimed to mimic the streamlined design of Porche's cars when creating the building and succeeded with a contemporary structure that is both innovative and eye-catching.
