Theme: POLIS, the Living City
National Pavilion Day: June 19
Location: Within Zone C of the Expo Site
Highlight 1 The Greek pavilion uniqueness is that condenses 24hrs in the life of a Greek city into the 12 hours that the pavilion will be open to the public. In fact, the pavilion can be seen as a “living organism” that follows a daily cycle synchronized with the cycle of the sun in Shanghai for the duration of the Expo.
Highlight 2 Pavilion Halls include: ARCADE, THE CITY AND THE SEA,
Pavilion Features
The pavilion addresses the theme of this year’s expo through a human centered approach. Polis, the Greek city constitutes “a city for living well” but also a live, a vibrant city! The design refers to the urban fabric, not as a physical replica, but as an interpretation of living and functioning in the city, as a reminder of the joy of the urban life. It not only exhibits the every day way of life but it also reflects an insatiable thirst for living!
