We’ve gotten a peek at some of the other structures being built for the food-themed Milan Expo 2015, from a smog-gobbling facade for Italy to a veggie-growing restaurant for France. Now here’s the American pavilion, which is inspired by three signature food-related structures for the U.S.: A barn, a boardwalk, and—of course!—food trucks.
Designed by Biber Architects, the U.S. pavilion is named “American Food 2.0: United to Feed the Planet” and will explore food production, sustainable farming methods, and health and nutrition. Rainwater harvesting as well as hydroponic methods will be used to grow food on the structure’s exterior, and solar panels on the roof will power the entire building.
