Cubicity
The cube composition is a significant representation of the Third Dimension as it establishes the creation of Space. This pavilion is designed by Qhawarizmi Architect, named Cubicity for its obvious shape and location in the heart of the city. Crafted from ribbed aluminium panels containing 90% recycled content, the pavilion will be recycled again for future applications. Its temporal nature ensures easy disassembly for recycling, aligning with the principles of a circular economy where every component is re-purposed or recycled at the end of its life.
