The outer shell is mounted on prefabricated steel framed construction. The outer layer of the elevation is made of prefabricated wooden panels, repeating the rhythm of wooden apple boxes. The choice of materials and the character of construction were largely dictated by the needs of possible future reclaiming and recycling of the whole pavilion or its parts after the closing of EXPO and therefore responds to the recommendations of the Expo host to reduce waste. Apart from the real stroll, the exhibition offers a virtual walk as well during which the recipients will be able to learn more about the Polish agriculture as well as familiarise themselves with the Polish landscape. The message to the recipient is centred upon the Polish agriculture and its economic success. This area was dedicated to organise various events as a part of the exhibition. ![]() The illusion of the garden's expanse and endlessness is created by the use of mirrors made from polished, chrome-plated metal, which the entire inner wall is covered with in order to multiply the reflections. The contrast between the entrance and the garden's horizontal and endless space is the essence of the feeling the pavilion is supposed to evoke in its visitors. The garden consists of endless rows of apple trees, characteristic to the Polish landscape. The pavilion's layout leads visitors through a symbolic 'secret' garden, hidden behind an openwork 'box-like' structure. The idea is executed on two levels, through the use of the openwork outside wall and by conveying the pavilion's as a form of packaging for the presentation of Poland's agriculture. It has been realised through the use of a motif of a wooden apple box, normally used in shipment as a packaging for fruits. The idea refers to Polish orchards and horticulture, significant to the Polish landscape and economy.
