The Guardian: Serpentine pavilion by Sou Fujimoto

Japanese architect Sou Fujimoto’s take on Serpentine pavilion looks like a white cloud in Hyde Park, London. Architecture critic Oliver Wainwright reviews the pavilion and interviews the architect for The Guardian. In today’s overload of wow-architecture it is increasingly difficult to impress with a pavilion, yet Serpentine Gallery manages to provide positive surprises year after year. I think Sou Fujimoto’s pavilion stands proud with the most interesting pavilions of recent years, SANAA’s pavilion in 2009, Peter Zumthor + Pier Oudolf’s in 2011 and Herzog & de Meuron + Ai Weiwei’s pavilion in 2012.
