BEIJIGN, June 24 -- Finland's exhibit will be based
on the theme "Sharing Inspiration," promoting ideas on how to improve people's
living standards.
Kirnu also means an exchange of ideas, and Finland
welcomes suggestions for a better life from the world, Huitu said.
The pavilion will be built on a 3,000-square-meter
plot. The three-story building, which will include a restaurant serving Finnish
food, will look like a huge white bowl and will be surrounded by a lake. The
"bowl" will appear to be floating on the water, said chief designer Teemu
Kurkela.
Visitors will be able to do some sky watching at the
pavilion, as it will be an open-air structure, with a covering for rainy days.
Kurkela said he wanted to give visitors the relaxing feeling of lying on an
island and watching the sky.
