The Seed, a huge granite sculpture at Eden

The Seed is the centrepiece of the new building known as the Core, where all the non-living exhibitions are now housed. The Seed is carved from Cornish granite and weighs 70 tonnes. It has Fibonacci spirals carved onto its surface, which mirror patterns found in nature such as on a sunflower.

Robin in the mediterranean biome at Eden

Robin in the mediterranean biome at Eden

Eden now has a colony of robins living inside the biomes and their song seems exceptionally loud as they are indoors. Some people thought that the birds must be tropical species. They clearly have no fear of people either. This one was sitting only a few feet away.

'Industrial plant' at Eden

'Industrial plant' at Eden

I love the humour of this 'industrial plant' among the living displays in Eden's outdoor gardens. Not even the pouring rain could spoil the fun.

WEEE Man at the Eden Project

WEEE Man at the Eden Project

WEEE man is made entirely of Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment. New EU rules mean that retailers now have to help their customers dispose of redundant equipment. Eden came up with a more artistic, if rather skeletal, solution.
