The Portugal Pavilion, designed by Kengo Kuma, embraces the theme "Ocean, The Blue Dialogue," inviting visitors to explore the ocean as a life-giving resource and a foundation of sustainability.
Reflecting Portugal's deep historical, cultural, and economic ties to the sea, the pavilion creates an architectural and narrative journey bridging past, present, and future. Its structure, crafted from suspended ropes and recycled fishing nets, evokes the fluidity of ocean waves and interacts dynamically with sunlight and wind. Positioned prominently on the Expo site, the pavilion's flowing forms and seemingly floating upper section create an immersive experience that aligns with the Expo's theme of empowering lives.
