Designed for the World Expo 2012 to be held in Yeosu, Korea, the "Water Cube Pavilion" from MVRDV depicts the power and beauty of oceans, for the pure visible water block design looks as if extracted straight from the sea.
Based on the theme of "The Living Ocean and Coast," the Water Cube features the facade finished in four layers of glass, which is filled with water pumped from the sea to maintain the flow throughout the structure.
