Nordic Pavilion
The Nordic Pavilion at the Venice Biennale designed by Sverre Fehn in 1962 is one of the most beautiful pavilions at the Bienale. The proposal aimed to bring the white shadowless Nordic light to Venice which is achieved by the ceiling louvres which create soft diffuse light within the pavilion. The elegant, almost minimal, building incorporates existing mature trees into the design including the corner of the building where a large structural beams splits in two to frame the external tree.
