Last year Trend Hunter Brian Randles brought our attention to the Shanghai Corporate Pavilion concept design and now I'd like to inform you that the real deal is almost finished--just in time for the Shanghai World Expo! A fantastic eco-friendly feat, it is made of recycled CD jewel cases that were transformed into LED light tubes.
The gallery above shows the construction progress of the Shanghai Corporate Pavilion almost from the beginning. The LED lights are computer-controlled, allowing it to be changed on a whim. Pretty neat, right?
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Recycled Materials
- Exploring innovative uses for recycled materials such as CD jewel cases can create unique architectural designs and reduce waste.
- Eco-friendly Construction
- The use of LED light tubes and computer-controlled lighting systems in architecture promotes sustainability and energy efficiency.
- Smart Lighting
- Integrating computer-controlled LED lighting technologies into architectural designs allows for dynamic and customizable lighting experiences.
Sectors Adopting This
- Architecture
- The architecture industry can embrace the use of recycled materials and smart lighting systems to create eco-friendly and visually stunning structures.
- Sustainable Design
- The sustainable design industry can explore the potential of repurposing recycled materials for architectural projects, promoting environmental consciousness.
- LED Lighting
- The LED lighting industry can expand its market by partnering with architects and construction companies to incorporate smart lighting solutions into buildings.
