In 2011, Tejlgaard built a plywood dome for Denmark’s famed Roskilde Festival (think Scandinavian Coachella) that became the hit of the event. This year, he and Jepsen were invited to build a pavilion to house attendees of Folkemødet, an annual town hall–esque gathering of Danish politicians and voters meant to generate national dialogue. Given the optimism of the event, the duo decided to test a new type of exploded geodesic dome--an icon of optimistic architecture if ever there was one. — fastcodesign.com

Richness of space, efficiency, incorporating the 'fibonacci sequence' will never be a "Fad" no matter how much your average 'Architecture-Critic' begs it to be.
Organic forms, such as this represents "form following function" much more appropriately than the megaliths amongst our moats of asphalt.
It's nice to see projects like this building organic forms, clients will surely appreciate.
Its a beautiful shell.... still its far more a sculpture than a building.

...megaliths amongst our moats of asphalt.... nicely done alteration!
I wonder how the shifts in surface and edges effect the overall geodesic strength? Anyone?
