The brilliant bristling structure you see above is not the world’s largest pincushion – it’sThomas Heatherwick’s recently completedUK Pavilionat the2010 Shanghai Expo. Dubbed the “Seed Cathedral”, the six-story high structure is studded with60,000translucent rods that act as fiber-optic filaments thatchannel sunlightinto the pavilion’s interior. The densely-packed forest of filaments also contains the impetus to create living forests in the future — each 7.5 meter long “branch” contains seeds from theMillenium Seed Bankthat will be given to China one the expo has run its course.
