UAE PAVILION (MILAN) EXPO & 2020 VISITOR ATTRACTION

Visitors travel through a canyon like entrance formed by two 12 metre high walls, covered with a soft ripple effect texture in warm desert sand tones. They are led through fauna and terrain, courtyards and winding streets typical to the UAE.

A trip through the pavilion is the height of interactivity, where each visitor is given a tablet at the entrance of the pavilion to enhance the experience.

The final phase of the narrative tour concludes in a large circular auditorium where audio visual projections regarding nutrition and sustainability in accordance to the theme ‘Nourish the Planet, Energy for Life’ will run.

The Pavilion is one of the few to be constructed in durable materials, as it is to be dismantled and rebuilt as a tourist attraction in Abu Dhabi.
