The Core, Eden
The Core, at the world famous Eden project, was officially opened by Her Majesty the Queen in 2006. The stunning design is topped by a roof created from an intricate web of curved timber beams and based on Fibonacci spirals - a pattern found in many natural forms including the seeds of a sunflower head, pine cones and snail shells.

Major sponsors are the Millennium Commission (£10.5 million), South West Regional Development Agency (£2.9 million) and the Objective One European Regional Development Fund (£1 million).
