Construction work on the Italian
Pavilion at Expo Osaka 2025 is proceeding at a fast pace.
The pavilion will be the largest national complex entirely build
in wood.
About 60-70% of the work has already been completed.
The pace of construction, during the first institutional visit
to the site of ongoing work, attracted the interest of the large
group of Japanese reporters present, who were curious about all
the ideas represented by the pavilion - a message aiming for a
positive impact in which, along with beauty and Italian taste,
ethics and sustainability cohabit.
The objective of the Carbon-free certificate in fact does not
limit artistic validation but, on the contrary, strengthens the
message.
It embraces the technology used to glue wood, a material that
captures CO2 and thus important to balance out emissions,
explained the architect of the Italian Pavilion Mario Cucinella.
The pavilion interpreted by Cucinella will be like a "large
hangar of knowledge", with three main elements representing
Italy's history: the theatre to welcome visitors, a large square
as a meeting point, and a sweeping garden representing the union
of two cultures.
Functionality and cultural attractiveness promote investments on
innovation, research and technology, thanks to the involvement
of regions that are about to become the protagonists of the
exhibition, represented by Friuli Venezia Giulia Governor
Massimiliano Fedriga, using the perspective of potential
investments on Italy's territory.
The projects are "aimed at improving the quality of life and
promoting sustainability, as the theme itself of Expo says,
designing future society", recalled once more Mario Vattani, the
General Commissioner for Italy at Expo 2025.
"Osaka offers a unique opportunity to promote Italian
excellencies in a multitude of sectors, thus the appointment is
in April 2025 with great attention from the Japanese on what we
will present", he concluded.
