Pavilion of Romania at Expo Milano 2015

Arch. Arh.Radu Teaca & Arh. Radu Petre Nastase

The Artline and Adest proposal for the Competition of ideas regarding the national pavilion of Romania at Expo Milano 2015 targeted to reflect, as clear as possible, the economical, social and cultural situation of Romania today. In this respect, the pavilion incorporated solutions that make possible the existence, in the same space and culture, the urban living with its third millennium technology and the nature and the traditional garden.

The first element that can be seen it is the water, an ecological pond that represents the Danube Delta. The main access is made on a water resistant teak wood deck. Next by it there is an island that welcomes the visitors.

The ground floor plan continues with an ensemble of vertical wooden elements suggesting a pan-pipe that lead to a neutral volume constituted by glass and wooden bars, system that allows the natural light to flow into a space similar to a black box (even though it is white) that contains versatile technologies as LED displays and a multifunctional hall.

On the upper floor, appearing as a traditional house reinterpreted in a modern key, a restaurant is set, surrounded by a vegetables garden. The structure of the house is made by logs and glass bars, allowing perspectives to the garden, harmonizing the interior-exterior relation.
