Unlike other pavilions, this one employs the use of cardboard and tape to demonstrate the universaility of a structure that relies on the shape over the material to give it its support.

Made up of 185 hexagonal panels, this honeycomb structure takes direct influence from nature in its appearance and structural and performative capabilities; like the honeycomb shape created by bees, this translatation also manages to be lightweight while also able to hold up itself.
