inside the archipelagic void: mass studies' minsuk cho on the 2024 serpentine pavilion
Briefly

The pavilion is not a traditional folly in British French garden culture. It is something you create that doesn't exist in this world. It's kind of utopian, bringing over new ways of technology: the prototype Glass Pavilion in 1914, the Buckminster Fuller domes, and the Dymaxion house in 1942. These are all very utopian ideas. I think they came from this kind of folly culture.
I look at the pavilion with a more size-specific approach. Not just to be different. But also because I thought it has to be broken down to many parts rather than just one object, one thing in itself, or one iconic thing or shape.
