Fusion of Art and Architecture with textile motifs, Philippine Pavilion at Expo

The Philippines, which will exhibit a “Type A” pavilion that it will design and build itself at the 2025 Osaka-Kansai Expo, held a presentation in Osaka to outline the exhibit.

The theme is “Woven.” Using traditional textiles as a motif, it conveys the meaning of weaving a better future.

The exterior design was done by Carlo Calma, a popular Filipino architect, who expressed the woven fabric look with materials that incorporate actual textiles.

There is also a stage on the exterior wall. Live performances such as dance are considered part of the building. Karma said, “It is also an expression of my theme, which is the fusion of art and architecture.”
