Poland Pavilion

The architectural design is based on the use of wood, with an organic form thanks to arches and curves. The design of the expressive wooden facade based on Kigumi Koho, a traditional timber joining technique, is an homage to traditional Polish and Japanese architecture.
The form resembles a spreading wave of creativity and innovation of Poles.
Poland will be presented as a country, the main resource of which are its people - creative, open-minded, educated, imaginative and brave in their thought and effort.

Aleatek Studio’s concept of “Floating Forest” has been announced as the winner of the competition for the design of the Serbia Pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025. The pavilion, will be located at the West Entrance and Earth Plaza, aims to interpret Serbian culture and the country’s natural landscape through architectural expression. The design strategy also aligns with the theme “Play for humanity” of the upcoming Specialised Expo 2027 to be held in Belgrade.

China National pavilion - renderings of the design proposals.

The architectural design of the China Pavilion is inspired by the concept of "Chinese Scroll." Its exterior is shaped like a traditional Chinese scroll, incorporating three main elements: bamboo, Chinese characters, and scrolls. Through these elements, it showcases the spirit and essence of Chinese civilization, emphasizing the harmonious unity of nature and humanity. This design interprets the core concept of China's unwavering commitment to sustainable development in the new era.


The façade of the building is adorned with inscriptions of poetry, depicting the poetic imagery of mountains and rivers on the elegant and gentle scrolls. This harmonizes seamlessly with the garden landscape of ink pools and bamboo shadows in front of the pavilion, providing visitors with a unique and immersive viewing experience.


Bamboo is a representative element of Chinese civilization. Chinese people admire, cultivate, and love bamboo. Additionally, bamboo serves as a renewable ecological building material, reflecting the value orientation of harmonious coexistence between humans and nature, as well as the development direction of contemporary architectural technology.

Chinese characters are a cultural treasure of the Chinese nation and one of the oldest surviving writing systems in the world. Whether in poetry, prose, or calligraphy, they spread the rich information and unique charm of Chinese civilization to the world.

Scrolls represent an inexhaustible treasure trove of ideas, symbolizing China's cultural soft power of "observing humanity to enlighten the world" and reflecting the deep and enduring cultural confidence of the Chinese nation.

This new Spain pavilion looks like a carbon copy of the Israel pavilion at Dubai Expo 2020.

The Spain Embassy in Tokyo says its pavilion at next year's expo in western Japan will feature sustainable technology using marine resources. It will also draw inspiration from an ocean current that has connected the two countries for centuries.

The embassy says the pavilion's concept will be based on the Kuroshio Current in the Pacific Ocean. The warm-water current normally flows from southwest to northeast along the southern coast of the Japanese archipelago.

The pavilion will feature technology that can preserve historic remains on the seafloor. It will also showcase a technology that produces fuel and medicine from algae and other marine resources to help realize a sustainable society.

The architect who designed the pavilion, Nestor Montenegro, says the cultures of Japan and Spain have been historically connected through the oceans. He adds that he wants to convey the importance of protecting the oceans.

Qatar on Tuesday laid the foundation stone for its pavilion at EXPO 2025 Osaka, Kansai, Japan, aiming to further fortify the comprehensive strategic bilateral partnership, which has been flourishing for more than 50 years.

The pavilion’s design is inspired by a fusion of Qatari and Japanese cultures, particularly the shared elements such as the wood used in the building of traditional dhows, the wood used in the construction of traditional Japanese houses and the fabric used in their interiors. The total area of the pavilion is estimated at 1,292sqm.
