The theme

Expo 2010 asked every nation one question: how can cities offer a better life?

The idea

Greece answered with the polis, the city as a living space. Panoramic projection rooms, a water channel running through the exhibition and an olive tree café at its heart turned the pavilion into a walk through Greek city life.
