Earthworm-inspired pavilion is built in Latvia's floodplains to stage concerts and light shows

Didzis Jaunzems Architecture has built a circular pavilion for open-air music and lighting performances, designed to be reminiscent of an earthworm's natural habitat.
Nature Concert Hall is an interactive, educational multi-media event on nature and sustainable development, held every year in a different location in Latvia, and every year is curated with a particular species as its "mascot". Didzis Jaunzems Architecture was asked to base this year's pavilion on the earthworm.
The architects responded with a structure designed to tell the "story" of the earthworm and its underground world. Three openings cut into the pavilion imitate worm-holes, while the sinuous patterning on the dark background reflects the creatures in their subterranean habitat.
