A Skin That Adapts,
a Thread That Tells a Story

At Expo 2025 Osaka, i-Mesh weaves vision and material to represent Italy and the Marche Region through the language of soft architecture. Chosen to envelop three official pavilions, our fabric transforms into a high-performance, lightweight membrane — a material solution that blends engineering precision with poetic presence.  These are the three key projects carried out for Expo 2025 Osaka:

Italy Pavilion
Future of Life Pavilion
Indonesia Pavilion

Crafting Lightness:
i-Mesh in Three Expo Pavilions

Selected for three key pavilions at Expo 2025 Osaka, i-Mesh brings its unique textile language to projects that explore innovation, identity, and lightness — the very essence of soft architecture.

i-Mesh Masterclass at Expo 2025 Osaka
Join the conversation on design, architecture, and innovation — watch it live on YouTube.

On June 3, 2025, the Auditorium of the Italy Pavilion hosted the i-Mesh Masterclass “The Pattern in Architecture: Cultural Orienteering Techniques”. This special event explored how patterns—through texture, form, and proportion—shape spatial identity and cultural expression.
Renowned architects and designers, including Mario Cucinella, Jiro Endo, Taichi Kuma, Salvator-John A. Liotta, Yuko Nagayama, and Migliore+Servetto, shared insights on the symbolic and technical power of patterns in contemporary architecture and design.
