Estonia at Expo 2010



As far as I can tell from an online translator, "varjatud linnad" means roughly "interurban undercurrent." That would certainly match the visuals and Expo 2010's theme.

Estonia always has great world's fair pavilions and this preview of their Expo 2010 pavilion looks to be no exception.

As a graphic designer, my favorite world's fair pavilion brochure of all time was the Estonia Pavilion's brochure at Expo 2000 in Hannover entitled "A Dozen Questions about Estonia." It was very colorful, clever, and tongue-in-cheek.

CORRECTION: I've since learned that this was only a proposal for the Estonia Pavilion and that another entry won. Still, if one of the losing entries is this interesting, we can only guess how compelling the final pavilion will be.
