Vietnam Exhibition Hall built for Milan Expo 2015

Vo Trong Nghia Architects have designed and built the Vietnam Pavillion for Milan Expo 2015, which runs from May 1 to October 31 in Italy.

Milan Expo 2015 is a global exposition, at which participating countries will display their technology, innovation, culture, traditions, creativity and food, highlighting this year's theme: Feeding the Planet, Energy for Life.

This year's Milan Expo motto inspired the design team to return urban people their power by providing them food and a positive outlook.

"Our proposal is to bring the trees back to the cityscape to share the importance of nature and regenerate our ability to live in harmony with nature," said architect Vo Trong Nghia.

The design team set up a two-storey exhibition space at the centre of the pavilion, surrounded on all sides by water and framed by 25 bamboo structures.
