the future pavilion
In 2024, the leading theme is the future. The pavilion has been built as a symbol of the upcoming challenges and hopes for the years to come. Designed by passionate and engaged students, it is a manifestation of their vision of a future that is dynamic, innovative, and open to change. The students did not forget about the foundations of building the future, among which social bonds turned out to be an important aspect. The pavilion's plan is based on a square, which symbolizes balance and harmony. Its roof consists of interwoven wooden beams that not only give the structure lightness and elegance but also symbolize the complex social bonds and cooperation between people.

23 architecture students worked in pairs to create conceptual design ideas. One project was chosen that, according to the students, best embodies the idea of the future. The pavilion is placed on a platform that serves as a meeting, interaction, and integration space for visitors. It features seating and lounging areas that encourage conversation and relaxation. The pavilion is surrounded by low vegetation in shades of blue, purple, and white.
The entire structure of the pavilion is made of wood, complemented by an innovative material – bricks made from mycelium. This environmentally friendly brick, made from mushrooms, symbolizes sustainability and the future of construction based on ecological materials. It represents modernity and innovation while highlighting the importance of caring for the environment. Mycelium bricks are the material of the future that could revolutionize the way we build and think about architecture.
The pavilion is being built by students of the Faculty of Architecture with the help of specialists from the company Unibep, learning theory in practice. The construction, near the Hermitage building, began in mid-May and lasted for almost a month.
