EXPO Hall "Shining Hat" Projection Mapping
The theme and philosophy of this EXPO, which will be held from April 2025, is “Designing Future Society for Our Lives”. This philosophy is not a one-way provision of value, but an interactive process that transcends generations and various positions, and is built together.
In pursuit of this philosophy, projection mapping will be performed on the Outer Wall of the “Shining Hat” event hall, one of the symbols of the Expo site. This will be one of the places where the future is co-created with people from all over the world. We invite you to express your hopes and visions for the future in the contents of this projection, and express the world of your imagination and creativity.
