An expansive and seemingly weightless roof characterises the main entrance to the fair. Omnipresent visual links facilitate an easy orientation within all buildings and integrate the open landscape of the Black Forest into all areas. The four pavilions are grouped symmetrically and are spanned by vaulted timber roof constructions without additional columns.
