Dragon Skin Pavilion exhibited in Hong Kong
The Dragon Skin Pavilion designed by TUT graduates Emmi Keskisarja and Pekka Tynkkynen is showcased at the Hong Kong & Shenzhen Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism\Architecture.
What started out as a workshop for Finnish architecture students arranged by the EDGE Laboratory for Architectural and Urban Research at Tampere University of Technology and LEAD (Laboratory for Explorative Architecture & Design Ltd.) has evolved into an experimental structure in the form of a pavilion.
The Dragon Skin Pavilion is a joint effort between architects Emmi Keskisarja and Pekka Tynkkynen - both graduates from TUT - and LEAD. The pavilion is made of post-formable plywood and has generated widespread interest in the esteemed biennale.
The Dragon Skin Pavilion is currently exhibited at the 2012 Hong Kong & Shenzhen Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism \ Architecture.
The Hong Kong & Shenzhen Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism\Architecture opened on 16 February and is scheduled to close on 23 April. The exhibition is expected to attract more than 70,000 participants.
