Serpentine Gallery 2013, by Sou Fujimoto

The architect Sou Fujimoto signed the 13th Summer pavillion of Serpentine Gallery, located in Hyde Park, London. This pavillion is the third one designed by Japanese architects, after the work made by Toyo Ito (2002) and Kazuyo Sejima & Ryue Nishizawa (2009). This concept has a history made over the years with the collaboration of architects like Siza Vieira, Eduardo Souto de Moura, Oscar Niemeyer, Herzog & de Meuron and Zaha Hadid.

This year's structure opens to the public in June 8th, and is described by its author as a mix between the natural and the artificial, Nature and Architecture, and between the existing and built elements. There's a clear parallelism with some of Fujimoto's projects, like N House, project published in our blog in March.
