Visitors to the Czech pavilion in the World EXPO 2010 in Shanghai will find themselves in a fictitious city, ’where one can feel well and safe. In a city of activity, charms, production, traveling, observing and listening, where any passer-by can take an active part.’
Main theme of the 2010 World’s Exposition ’Better City – Better Life’ as well as the theme of the national participation under ’Fruits of Civilization,’ had inspired the creators of this winning design to create an imaginary urbanized countryside.
