This study is to examine the directions which the pavilion architecture should take. In this study it is ascertained that the changes in character of expo have had strong influences on the type and character of the pavilion architecture which not only displays exhibits but also symbolizes the theme of expo.
Since 1851 London Exhibition there has been two types of pavilion architecture. One is looking-forward architecture and the other is looking-backward architecture. The former is the case such as the 1893 Chicago Columbian World Exposition which had nipped the Chicago School's creative spirit in the bud. The latter is the case such as 1925 Soviet Pavilion, 1929 German Pavilion and 1967 US Pavilion, German Pavilion and Habitat 67 which tried to solve the current issues and widen the future architectural horizon.
