Hydrapier Pavillion / Vork en Mes

Europe, Holland, Hoofddorp, Haarlemmermeerse Bos, Hydrapier pavilion (Asymptote) Vork & Mes restaurant (Jonathan Karpathios) (cut from all sides)

 

The Hydrapier Pavillion was the main pavillion of the Floriade horticultural exposition of 2002. It was designed by Asymptote (Hani Rashid & Lise Anne Couture) here .

 

The building is currently used by the excellent Vork en Mes restaurant here.

 

And no, it's not a Dutch monsoon giving the building it's wet appearance but the fact that the roof doubles as a cascade ánd a pond.
