We are happy and proud to annouce that Monaco Pavilion at Astana Expo 2017 has won Best Small Pavilion Award from Exhibitor Magazine.

Here are the reasons received from Trevis Stanton, Editor Exhibitor Magazine:

Judges had this to say about the Monaco Pavilion:

· Compact and powerful as a small wave hitting a beach, Monaco’s pavilion offered a lush and luxurious reflection on hydro power that’s as mesmerizing as a hypnotist’s watch.
· Excellent interpretation of the overall theme
. The fascinating kinetic installation gave an immediate focus to the experience.
· The entrance façade was simply stunning, calming, and relevant. The logo and its story and relevance to Monaco and the ocean was just a simple and beautiful design. Brilliant! The kinetic installation/presentation was big, bold, and beautiful! This pavilion was structurally gorgeous throughout!
· Monaco mastered big impact, especially for a smaller pavilion. From the gorgeous undulating waves and blue ocean hues of the exterior, to the large immersive kinetic environment of video and reflective elements, this pavilion was indisputably impactful and undeniably memorable.

Simmetrico’s experience at Astana Expo 2017 by our Head of Project

The Experience of Riccardo Cigolotti, Head of Project for Simmetrico at Astana Expo 2017, Kazakhstan Pavilion ‘Museum of Future Energy’ and Monaco Pavilion:

“The context we have faced, was new and difficult, but the capacity to adapt ourselves and never give up, allow us to reach the goals.

Close process integration, between contents, design and technology, a Simmetrico must, was the key for comply of the deadlines for Monaco Pavilion and Future Enegy Museum in Expo Astana 2017.

Almost one year of development, over 200 people involved and few months for construction, including the winter time with very low temperatures.

Two different projects and two close teams, which have worked in support of one other in the most critical phases.

It has been again a great honour to be part of Simmetrico.”
