    Mark – a great post, and five excellent points about the Eden Project. I think ‘organic’ is a great way to describe it, and I’d also use the word ‘journey’ to explain what it’s all about – symbolised to some extent by the “seed” within the education building. You are taken on a physical journey through the site, through swathes of flower beds and then down to the biomes themselves, which seem in perfect harmony within the excavation that is the site. Winding your way up through gardens, diverse and lush in their individual plots, yet seemingly linked.

    A brilliant demonstration of architecture working in harmony with its surroundings and creating a real haven in an unlikely place.
