Türkiye
Pavilion
The "Turkey Pavilion" designed for EXPO 2025 OSAKA has an area of 480 m2.
In the design process, the pavilion's location and its surrounding environment were taken into consideration, and the perception of the building's architecture and its content guided the design. Therefore, instead of limiting walls, the Turkey Pavilion is clad with vertical pipe profiles designed in a wave form on the second tier. On the front facade of the pavilion, an illuminated "Crescent and Star" design representing the Turkish Flag is placed above the entrance door.
The "Crescent" form and the installation inside it, which greet visitors at the first step, is an interpretation of the ancient symbol "Kün - Ay," depicting the "Moon and Sun."
This design approach integrates both the pavilion structure itself, making it part of the exhibition, and the architectural interpretation that connects people and content.
On both long facades of the pavilion, wave forms are created with pipe profiles to reference the Black Sea and Mediterranean coasts surrounding our country.
Additionally, the boron-coated tree installation at the main entrance of the pavilion was designed to reference the richness of Turkey's boron reserves, and it has been addressed with nighttime lighting and a sparkling texture during the day, along with the flags of participating countries.
