The Desert Nest Qatar Pavilion was created for the Floriade Expo 2022, a decadal International Horticultural Exhibition that celebrates horticulture and promotes sustainable urban solutions. Aligned with the Expo's theme of "Growing Green Cities".
Serving as a prototype for future building technologies and green urban environments, the Pavilion embodies sustainable construction practices by utilizing renewable energy and reclaimed materials. It features nature-inspired parametric design and adaptable landscapes, minimizing construction waste and negative impacts while incorporating advanced techniques like 3D printing.
In addition to the Pavilion, the site includes an exhibit of native Qatari plants and experiential garden spaces, all designed to create a lasting public attraction after the Expo concludes.
