The French pavilion would consist of three buildings of pure geometric design.
A rectangular structure would house industrial exhibits, Maxim's famous Paris restaurant and a Moulin Rouge dining terrace. A pure white elipse would contain a 1500-seat theater where the original "Folies Bergere" would be presented. A towering pyramid would contain the Treasures of Versailles, a collection of French paintings and art objects.
Ground was broken for the pavilion on February 5, 1963. However it was never constructed and France did not officially participate in the Fair.
