Great precedent (1) Structural sieve

These are some images of a project done in (I think) the late 60's for the Venice Biennale.
It's the Norwegian pavillion by Sverre Fehn.

The images are a little confusing if you don't know the project. The viewed area is an exterior court to an enclosed pavillion.

It sets up the rub between exterior and interior that we all have learned to love.

It's relationship to nature is like a 'structural sieve' porous to a select nature, over time.
