Exterior view photograph. Switzerland Pavilion exterior (lot B-307). The three storey Switzerland Pavilion was designed to convey a feeling of both warmth and openess. Warmth was successfully achieved by use of dark wood finishes. The completely glazed ground floor created a feeling of openess, welcoming Expo visitors. The ground floor exhibition primarily showcased Swedish works of art. The main exhibition was located on the second floor where exhibits on geography, industry, resources, political and social structures were showcased. Popular exhibits included that of the watch industry which boasted a cesium activated atomic clock. A 500-seat auditorium featured a 20 minute film about Switzerland. A three level restaurant and exterior dining area offered fine Swedish food and drink. Rectilinear volume with circular theatre. Structural steel with oiled cedar slats on cedar planks.
