The Icelandic Expo pavilion seeks to explain the fundamental relationship between nature and energy on one hand and Iceland’s people, urban areas and culture on the other. Using a surrounding high definition video projection, a story of survival and success unfolds, bringing visitors from the Shanghai Expo to the peaceful and crystal clean environment of Iceland.

Visitors to our Pavilion in Shanghai will get the feeling that they are approaching a cool refreshing sanctuary within the hot and humid city of Shanghai. The front entrance will be clad with Icelandic lava stone which will incorporate TV monitors displaying information on Iceland’s nature, culture and economy.
