The Australian Pavilion, designed by architect James C. MacCormick from the Commonwealth Department of Works, featured a floating and modern design, supported by concrete and steel pillars. Its sloping glass and aluminum walls were accented by trumpet-shaped hollow columns that distributed natural light throughout the vast interior. Visitors explored four main themes: science, national development, the arts, and Australian way of life. Aboriginal and contemporary art pieces, along with a model of the Parkes radio telescope, enhanced this unique experience.
