The Serpentine Pavilion, designed by the Danish Bjarke Ingels Group (BIG), is designed as an ‘unzipped wall’ as if two layers of bricks are pulled apart to form a space between them. The bricks of the walls are fibreglass extrusions, open at the ends, so that from the side there is a view through the wall. This also allows wind and rain to whistle through, making the space within liable to get wet. The pavilion by day houses a café and free family activities and by night becomes a space for the Serpentine’s programme of performing works.
