Seed Cathedral
Yesterday, Andrew Waburton, showed me some video footage of Thomas Heatherwick's Seed Cathedral: the British Council's entry for the UK pavilion at the 2010 Shanghai Expo. The building is made up of over 60,000 acrylic rods that each have a different seed from Kew Gardens' seed bank encapsulated in the end. During the day the rods act like fibre-optics drawing the natural light into the building and illuminating the individual seeds.
