With two excellent partners such as British Airways<\/strong> and Jaguar Land Rover<\/strong>, the UK Pavilion<\/strong> is inspired by scientific research and cutting-edge technology discovered by the physicist and expert Martin Bencsik<\/strong> hives. The structure was designed by the artist Wolfgang Buttress<\/strong><\/a> of Nottingham. To realize the work he has collaborated with Tristan Simmonds, engineer structured, and the architectural firm BDP, which is based in the city of Manchester. The design of the Pavilion “Grown in Britain & Northern Ireland<\/strong>” was inspired by the fundamental role that pollination takes place in the food chain: the visitors can enjoy a unique experience in the role and with the prospect of a real honey bee inside a beehive<\/strong>. The Pavilion, in fact, is a real beehive, made possible thanks to the research of Dr. Bencsik, which for years has monitored the behavior of these insects, by monitoring the health of their homes, hives precisely. The comparison, behind the project, is based on the idea that the UK is a hive in continuous ferment, able to engage in finding and gradually spread globally useful solutions to solve the main problems of our world.<\/p>
