Pavilion
The Brazil Pavilion at EXPO 2020 invited visitors to experience the country’s diverse natural environments through an immersive interpretation of the Amazon rainforest. Built around the theme “Together for Sustainable Development”, the pavilion created a space where guests could step away from the surrounding Expo environment and engage with a calm and sensory experience inspired by nature.
Brazil, known for its vast landscapes and contrasts, from rainforests and rivers to mountains and coastlines, was represented through a combination of physical space and digital environments. Visitors entered an open, expansive setting designed to simulate the atmosphere of the Amazon, where visual, sound and environmental elements worked together to create a tranquil and immersive journey.
The experience combined large-scale projection with ambient sound and environmental effects, allowing visitors to move through a space that responded to the idea of nature as both powerful and peaceful.

BeWunder delivered the audio and video systems for the pavilion, supporting a large-scale immersive environment based on 360-degree projection.
The installation involved the integration of more than 130 projectors across the interior surfaces of the pavilion, covering approximately 4,000 square metres. This required precise alignment and calibration to achieve seamless visual continuity across the full projection surface.
Due to the open-air design of the pavilion, all systems were adapted to operate under challenging environmental conditions, including high temperatures, humidity and dust. To address this, custom-built projector enclosures were developed, incorporating sensor-based monitoring to regulate internal conditions and ensure stable performance over the full duration of the exhibition.
These bespoke structures were engineered specifically for the project and underwent extensive testing to simulate operating conditions prior to installation. Their installation required detailed planning and coordination due to variations in size and weight, with some units requiring specialised handling during on-site mounting.
The delivery required close coordination between technical teams and project stakeholders to ensure that all systems operated reliably within a complex and demanding environment while maintaining the intended immersive experience.
