ARCHITECTURE: Serpentine Paviliion by Junya Ishigami (London, 2019)
The Japanese architect Junya Ishigami, celebrated for his experimental structures that interpret traditional architectural conventions and reflect natural phenomena, has been selected to design the Serpentine Pavilion 2019.
The design for the 2019 Serpentine Pavilion takes roofs, the most common architectural feature, as its point of departure and inspiration. It is reminiscent of roofing tiles seen around the world, bridging both architectural and cultural references through this single architectural feature. The roof of the Pavilion is made by arranging slates to create a canopy that alludes to nature. It appears to emerge from the ground of the surrounding Park.
The Pavilion could be seen for free near Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens, London from 21 Jun 2019 to 6 Oct 2019
