Earth Pavilion

The Earth Pavilion features a central space that aligns with the four cardinal points. Hexagon-shaped structures extend from each point, surrounded by concentric circles that flow inward and outward. These structures are supported by a cover of stretched canvas. The voids within the pavilion resemble attractors of biodiversity.
