Latvia Pavilion

Fertile earth for innovation
Humble peat moss forms the basis for the wildly imaginative Latvia Pavilion, which uses the traditional Baltic crop to create carved panels, compressed blocks and textured walls that lead visitors through a series of engaging multimedia exhibits. The Northern European nation sees itself as a country of adaptable, creative problem-solvers - a place where technological innovation can coexist with a love for nature and sustainability. The pavilion embraces opposites, creating thoughtful tableaus examining tumultuous history, exploring windswept seascapes and deep forests, and revealing how Latvia’s ancient traditions work within its cosmopolitan cities.
