Architect: Jacques Ferrier
The final design "the Sensual City," presented a simple building with a big French-style garden inside.
So far the France Pavilion has the highest budget amongst the others, the French government allocated 50 million euros (552 million yuan) budget for the national pavilion.
The France Pavilion, designed by Jacques Ferrier and his team, provides a unique opportunity to reinforce France's image in China. All the talents and financial forces will be gathered to make it real, said French President Nicolas Sarkozy in a statement when he decided to pick this design.
The France Pavilion is unique in terms of both form and technologies. It will present France's contribution in the sustainable urban development for one of the biggest economic metropolises in the planet, Sarkozy said.
He said the pavilion would use the most advanced building materials and environmental protection technology. It will be a shining example of energy efficiency and recycling techniques.
