  • A reply on Talk: Thomas Heatherwick: Building the Seed Cathedral

    Jun 5 2011: LIving in Shanghai, i had the chance to see the Seed Cathedral at the EXPO. Months before the EXPO started, there were billboards around the city to promote the pavillions, and I was so curious to see the real thing.

    When we went on the first day, we were just amazed. As TW says in his his talk, the whole building looked completely unreal, like an animation. Even staning right in front of the spiky building, it seemed to be blurry. Perfect and unique design.

    Unfortunately, the greatest part of the visitors did not really get the idea of the seeds. This emptiness and silence was so so different to all the other events going on. i really liked it though.

    So lets hope that one day TW is gonna build something as beautiful in Vancouver.
