Black Forest timber frames the only pavilion at Expo 2020 representing a region – The National

Rows of elevated, curved timber slats persuade visitors at Expo 2020 Dubai to stop by the Baden-Wurttemberg house.

Surrounded by more than 190 nations that have constructed pavilions, the south-west German state known for the Black Forest national park is the only region to carve out a separate space for itself.

More than 70 tonnes of spruce were shipped to Dubai to build the pavilion, which showcases the latest technology in solar, software and medicine.
