Kazuyo Sejima & Ryue Nishizawa Pavilion for Serpentine Gallery.
HINT: weather changes the appearance of the installation and space becomes expanded thanks to the reflective material.
" The architects has described the temporary structure as `floating aluminium, drifting freely between the trees like smoke. The reflective canopy undulates across the site , expanding the park and sky. Its appearance changes according to the weather , allowing it to melt into the surroundings. It works as a field of activity with no walls, allowing uninterrupted view across the park and encouraging access from all sides. It is a sheltered extension of the park where people can read, relax and enjoy lovely summer days´."*
