Dream Cube: Shanghai Corporate Pavilion — World Expo 2010 Shanghai

The Dream Cube, the Shanghai Corporate Pavilion at World Expo 2010 in Shanghai, China, opened in May 2010 with experience design by ESI Design and architecture by Atelier FCJZ — a 40,000-square-foot pavilion whose recycled-polycarbonate LED facade responded to the gestures of visitors inside its 360-degree participatory theater, drawing over four million visitors during the expo's run.
