Like a 'solar blanket' the Solar Pavilion harvests the sun's energy, which is then used to spread the sun's heat in the dark space under the 'solar blanket' by means of infrared radiation.
Using the latest techniques and aesthetic solar panels, energy and heat are generated on site. This pavilion shows the power and influence of design in the transition to a sustainable sun-driven future. The pavilion consists of a robust steel construction that is circular and demountable.
