Beautiful pavilion designed for the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, China.
Danish Pavilion by BIG has a spiral layout with pedestrian and bicycle lanes that allow visitors to experience the expo at different speeds.

No offense but chinese people walk and bike the same way they drive. Like they are the only people there. Again sorry for generalizing but u can see it in the video.

why is it that the statement “no offense” is always followed by something sure to offend. How they handle them self has no relevance about the design of this cool structure, so why even comment on that. The place looks super cool I gotta say!

Nice but looks like the cycle way is to narrow.

@cordyQ well regardless of how offensive his statement might have been, the way people interact in the space is kind of a huge part of design.

This is very very clever, especially since the bicycle culture is extremely developed, appreciated and representative in and for Denmark!

looks really cool but makes me think of the size of the cleaning crew you need to keep it white with the cycling and all

I love these photos. In fact I was there about 3 weeks ago and visited the Danish pavilion. Really amazing! My only complaint was there are just too many people. I was in line for like 2 hours…
