Honorable Mentions: Australia, Switzerland, France, Canada

Australia’s pavilion impressed with its recreation of the natural world, celebrating forest, land, and sea through an enveloping sensory journey grounded in environmental storytelling (Australia Pavilion). Switzerland delivered a minimal yet poetic experience, combining ambient light, immersive projections, and a bubble-blowing exhibit similar to Korea’s, all emphasizing precision and eco-consciousness (Switzerland Pavilion). France took a more theatrical approach with dazzling light displays and shimmering bead curtains that reflected the country's artistic flair and innovation (France Pavilion). Canada rounded out the group with a strong emphasis on Indigenous storytelling and diversity, weaving together natural textures, interactive soundscapes, and cultural artifacts(Canada Pavilion). Each of these pavilions, while distinct, contributed richly to the Expo’s collective narrative of global creativity, sustainability, and sensory engagement.
