Holland Pavilion at the 2018 Taichung World Flora EXPO
The Netherlands defacto embassy in Taiwan erected a large pavilion at the Taichung flora expo 2018-2019.
That includes the steel framing, its foundation, all the wood, the pavements, furniture, elevator and even the lightings and paint. Moreover, as this was just a temporary building, all materials and products were looked after to give them a life after the exposition.
The pavilion came together from a collaboration of 46 organizations displaying their solutions towards a circular economy. Materials and products where recycled, reused, rented or even upcycled.
Bart van Bueren was asked as consultant on circular economy, and helped NTIO in selecting an architect through a design competition.
