Outside the area enclosed by the Grand Ring are the national pavilions, led by the main Japanese pavilion, designed by Nikken Sekkei and Oki Sato (Nendo), where wood is once again the main material. Then there’s the Women’s Pavilion, in collaboration with Cartier and designed by Yuko Nagayama Associates, and the pavilions of the private sector, such as the remarkable Blue Ocean Dome by Shigeru Ban, which incorporates his signature construction technique of paper tubes in one of the domes.
This selection, curated by Domus, provides an overview of the most interesting pavilions at Expo 2025, both for those who plan to visit them and for those who will only see them in pictures.
