British Pavilion: Shaghai Expo

One of the more representational typologies of Veg.itecture is the use of vegetal forms (versus actual vegetation) to create architectural form. While not offering the full suite of benefits, this aspect of design inspiration has value through the implementation of biomimicry and the visual benefits of biophilic design that uses natural forms.
