The Design
About Octagon Експо павилјон
Октагонот—геометриска форма што ја избрал Никола Тесла за својата кула—го инспирирал дизајнот на уникатен павилјонски комплекс. Преку реконструирање на кулата со енергетски ефикасни технологии и со видиковецот како негова централна карактеристика, архитектонскиот ансамбл вклучува осум павилјони распоредени околу октагоналната основа на кулата. Овој иновативен дизајн може да стане иден симбол за која било меѓународна експо локација. Остаклениот атриум, поддржан од столбови во форма на молња, додава симболичен и впечатлив визуелен елемент.

- Unique Properties
- The octagon symbolizes an idea that may appear as one of the unique pavilions at global exhibitions, featuring the reconstruction of the Tesla tower as a viewpoint at the core of the collection. A special detail is the observation platform at the top of the tower. The glass atrium offers an impressive sight for visitors from within the octagon's interior. This design symbolically represent timeless space vehicle for the advent of good health and good fortune.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- The tower stands at 57 m tall with 44000 sqm at the ground level, 88000 sqm for the first and second floors, an atrium and green roof park covering 28000 sqm, giving it a gross area of approximately 215000 sqm

- Production Technology
- This design originated from sketches and was then developed in 2d and 3d with post-production incorporating aI tools. The methodology also included photo analysis of the Tesla tower, which has served as the foundation for both 2d and 3d computer illustrations. The tower could be enhanced with a mix of new materials and constructive elements to meet 21st century standards as an energy-efficient design.The proposed solution is designed to feature a structural system that allows the support of the atrium roof, covered with glass lattice, to be held up by columns shaped like lightning.
- Design Challenge
- The establishment of a distinctive pavilion complex enables the integration of these pavilions into a mixed-use cluster and a novel community in cities globally, particularly in nations that recognize and support energy efficiency and the advancement of science overall.
- Research
- The study focused on linking thematic structures of communication spanning a century. The experimental tower will be transformed into a pavilion meant to bring together individuals from around the globe and convey the idea that communication started with Tesla and persists with the upcoming generation of scientists, who, motivated by the Tesla tower, have elevated communication further by launching satellites into orbit
- Inspiration
- The innovations and experiments of Nikola Tesla in the 21st century capture significant interest from the global audience. This design draws inspiration from Nikola Tesla's tower and is enhanced by a courtyard extension shaped like an octagon, providing the composition with essential sculptural qualities and a fitting connection to the mass typology within the design
- Project Duration
- The design phase began in 2024, and the development is anticipated to occur in 2026
- Operation Flow
- The venue can serve as a fair pavilion that may be transformed into a commercial and residential space post fair, thereby guaranteeing its sustainability.
