The Smallest Ecological Footprint Switzerland Pavilion EXPO OSAKA, JAPAN
13th April to 13th October 2025
Switzerland
Pavilion

The Switzerland Pavilion at EXPO 2025 Osaka explored the themes of “Life”, “Planet”, and “Augmented Human”, presenting a vision of a sustainable and forward-looking society.

Designed as one of the most environmentally conscious pavilions at the Expo, the structure combined lightweight architecture with an immersive exhibition concept. Through the programme “Vitality.Swiss”, visitors were invited to engage with ideas around health, sustainability, and human potential.

The pavilion’s identity was defined by its distinctive bubble architecture, creating a soft and atmospheric environment that shaped the overall visitor experience.
