Lotus Dome
Hundreds of high-tech flowers
LOTUS DOME by artist Daan Roosegaarde is a living dome made out of hundreds of smart flowers which fold open in response to human behavior. Deep inside the 17th-century Sainte Marie Madeleine Church in Lille LOTUS DOME creates an interactive play of light and shadow.
As a futuristic vision on the Renaissance LOTUS DOME merges elements of architecture and nature into an interactive environment.
The project was awarded with the Media Architecture Award 2012 in the category of Future Trends. Commissioned by the City of Lille for Lille3000 FANTASTIC exhibition curated by Caroline David.
