plinthos by mab architecture

Repost via designboom: http://www.designboom.com/weblog/cat/8/view/13166/mab-architects-plinthos.html

greek studio, mab architecture has completed ‘plinthos’, a multi-sensory pavilion located in athens, greece.
the structure, which is constructed from 21,816 red clay bricks, explores both the traditional structural
characteristics of the modest material as well as the transparent qualities not normally associated with bricks.

The construction video is great. I DO love a good time-lapse!!
