The Labyrinth Pavilion at Expo 67, designed by the National Film Board of Canada, was an immersive five-story cinematic installation. It featured three main rooms: the first projected images onto giant screens, the second was a corridor of one-way mirrors, and the third showcased a film across five cross-shaped screens. This unique sensory experience attracted millions of visitors and inspired the development of the IMAX system (source: National Film Board of Canada)
