RECYCLED PLASTIC FOR THE ITALIAN PAVILLION AT DUBAI EXPO

A few months to go until the opening of the World Expo due to open in Dubai. We are all set to join the exhibition and attend the Italian pavillion. It will be located between the "Opportunity" and "Sustainability" thematic areas within the site. "The project will integrate sustainable materials – such as orange peels, coffee grounds, mycelium and recycled plastic extracted from the ocean – as construction elements," writes Carlo Ratti, one of the architects of the venue.

 

NO AIR CONDITIONING AND AN ADAPTABLE FAÇADE MADE OF LED CURTAINS

The pavilion will be exposed to the atmosphere, using natural climate control strategies instead of air conditioning. The space will be defined by an adaptable façade made of LED curtains and nautical ropes, which will create a digital layer able to broadcast multimedia content. "The pavilion is circular in nature. Nothing goes to waste; instead, we reclaim it and reimagine its purpose," adds architect Italo Rota, founding partner of the Italo Rota Building Office. "The sea will figuratively enter the structure through one of its living organisms, seaweed, which will be used to produce energy and food."

 

ITALIAN BEAUTY CONNECTS PEOPLE

The experience will invite visitors to ponder the theme of ‘Beauty that connects people' as they gradually ascend the 3,500 sqm pavilion – beginning with a prologue that features spaces inspired by traditional piazze (town squares) and ending with a grand finale that brings to mind an Italian skyline. Before setting foot in the structure, which is located in the Opportunity District of Expo 2020 Dubai, bypassers will find their eyes drawn to its innovative exterior. Ship hulls will be propped up on pillars to resemble petals in green, white and red – the colours of the Italian flag, il Tricolore.
