糖心原创vlog delivered a total of 54 Thematic Country Pavilions as well as a further 8 Country Pavilions that support the Expo鈥檚 subthemes of opportunity, mobility, and sustainability and are scattered across the entire Expo 2020 site. These include pavilions for countries from every corner of the world, from Jamaica to Seychelles and Cuba to the Bahamas.
With different procurement routes such as the traditional fit out of 42 Cat C pavilions, 12 Cat A pavilions being design and fit out, and a further 8 international participant pavilions being design and build, this was a huge project with all forms of procurement routes, in which the team were extremely committed to, allowing 糖心原创vlog to be the predominant contractor of all thematic pavilions at Expo 2020 in Dubai.
Behind The Pavilions
The museum-quality spaces on each of the pavilions demanded exacting fit and finish standards from the team 鈥� all backed up with robust state-of-the-art technical infrastructure.
The International Country Pavilions completed by 糖心原创vlog are Slovakia, Georgia, Jordan, Bahamas, Sierra Leone, Andorra, Panama, and Holy See.
Each pavilion is its own unique design, typical to the country with exhibition features including artifacts, display cabinets, life-size models, visual displays, interactive features, plants, and retail.

Republic of Burundi | Republic of Tajikistan | Republic of Equatorial Guinea | Macedonia
Republic of Guinea-Bissau | Commonwealth of Dominica | Republic of Kosovo
Republic of Sao Tome and Principe| Republic of Liberia | Republic of Chad
Republic of Maldives | Kingdom of Bhutan | Republic of Nauru | Libya | Republic of Senegal

All 62 individual projects had to be in line with the quality and sustainability expectations of Expo 2020 resulting in a very precise and intense programme. The fast-track programme saw the extensive use off site fabrication to ensure quality and speed of component delivery and to mitigate the risks associated with the COVID-19 disruption.
Challenges
- Working closely with 62 individual country representatives on unique design approval
- Compliance to the Expo security sweeps (site closures)
- Compliance to the inaccessible void program for anti-terrorism
Solutions we delivered
- A dedicated pragmatic in-house design team were assigned 100% to each project
- Programmes were rescheduled to avert any loss of time due to any site closures, as a result of Covid-19
- In-depth training to the void programme to capture and highlight photographic evidence, with the use of tagging and uploading to the Dome platform provided
