Grot­to is a pavil­ion for De Oude Warande in Tilburg, Nether­lands. It is a baroque fol­ly, a screen, a cave, a grave and a func­tion­al pavil­ion. Sit­u­at­ed in the heart of a baroque wood­land, it acts as a meet­ing place and café. It is con­struct­ed of a steel struc­ture with black mir­ror pan­els and poly­styrene con­crete ren­dered rock. At night the black mir­ror glass that dis­ap­pears against the wood­land dur­ing the day, falls away to reveal the out­side of the grotto’s ​‘brain’.
