该项目名为 "水印--在人类世生存"，强调了人类对地球的影响。设计团队解释说："人类是加速地球危机的时代的参与者，这个时代最近为自己赢得了一个被称为人类世的新地质时代，基于大量的证据表明，人类活动已经标志着自己是自然界的主要力量。”

The project, which is titled ‘Watermarks – Surviving the Anthropocene’, highlights the impact that mankind has had on planet earth. ‘humankind are the actors in an era of accelerated planetary crisis which has recently earned itself a new geological epoch called the anthropocene,’ explains the design team. ‘based on the overwhelming evidence that human activity has marked itself as a major force of nature.’

Cosmos建筑事务所指出了21世纪初发生的环境问题和自然灾害，包括前所未有的土地退化、可耕地的丧失、以及干旱和荒漠化的加剧。在全球范围内，据信在已知的8300个动物品种中，有8%的动物品种已经灭绝，22%的动物品种面临灭绝的危险。在此背景下，该馆展示了旨在平衡埃及生态多样性的贡献。

Cosmos architecture points to the environmental concerns and natural disasters occurring at the start of the 21st century, including: Unprecedented land degradation, the loss of arable land, and the increase of drought and desertification. Globally, it is believed that of the 8,300 animal breeds known, 8 percent are extinct and 22 percent are at risk of extinction. Within this context, the pavilion showcases the contributions aiming to balance the ecological diversity of egypt.

Cosmos建筑事务所说："埃及正在目睹其生物多样性的巨大损失。大约95种植物、昆虫、鸟类和动物正面临灭绝的危险，原因是快速的城市化正在接管农田，人口变化、过度消费和使用破坏环境的技术，现在再加上气候变化，正在把我们的国家和我们的星球推向极限。

‘Egypt is witnessing a huge loss of its biodiversity,’ says cosmos architecture. ‘about 95 species of plants, insects, birds and animal are in danger of extinction due to the rapid urbanization that is taking over the agricultural lands, the demographic changes, over- consumption, and the use of technologies that damage the environment, now combined with climate change, are pushing our country and our planet to its limits.’
