The Growing Pavilion

By 17-12-2019

Looking back at Dutch Design Week 2019, today The Growing Pavilion

How can we reduce the output of CO2? What do we do with waste products from agriculture? How do we deal with subsidence and rising sea levels? What is the aesthetic value of biobased materials? These are just a few of the many questions that the unique project The Growing Pavilion examines, before and during DDW 2019. Driven by a strong necessity and the need to stimulate a new way of thinking, Company New Heroes, Dutch Design Foundation and partners from the world of design, architecture, construction, government and education, have taken on the challenge to realize an iconic structure. A pavilion that consists entirely of biobased materials. Sourced as locally as possible, because the Brabant soil and knowledge are extremely rich. For ten days this landmark can be seen and experienced at the heart of the DDW; on the Ketelhuisplein in Eindhoven.

The Growing Pavilion is an initiative of
Company New Heroes and Dutch Design Foundation

Design: Pascal Leboucq in collaboration with Krown.bio
Concept: Pascal Leboucq – Lucas De Man – Company New Heroes
