The amazing Fulleresque Blur Building

Architects are building a Fuller-esque pavilion (“The Blur Building”) made of mist and tensegrity for the Swiss Expo 2002.

The pavilion is made of filtered lake water shot as a fine mist through 13,000 fog nozzles creating an artificial cloud that measures 300 feet wide by 200 feet deep by 65 feet high. A built-in weather station controls fog output in response to shifting climatic conditions such as temperature, humidity, wind direction, and wind speed.
