Expo 25 in Osaka, Japan.

We were delighted to be a partner of the World Expo 2025 and to have hosted the German Pavilion for the Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology. This theme in 2025 was the circular economy, which was also reflected in the architecture of the German Pavilion, where the steel and wood buildings were arranged in a circle, becoming an exhibit for circular and sustainable construction. PROLED was responsible for the immersive part of the exhibition. Using mono luminaires, linear lighting, and a sophisticated DMX control system, we made the pavilions rotate and move as if by magic, bringing the static architecture to life.
