The Wind Shaped Pavilion 17 Oct 2007

Michael Jantzen's Wind Shaped Pavilion is a building with a difference. Made entirely out of lightweight fabric, each of its six main segments twist around its central support frame in response to fluctuations in the wind. This means that the shape of the pavilion continually alters.

What a great concept - not only does this make for an interesting space, it also generates enough electrical power for its illumination at night.
