There's a new star in Kensington Gardens' universe: 'Archipelagic Void' is the latest Serpentine Pavilion, designed this year by South Korean architect Minsuk Cho and his studio Mass Studies, and it's an astral delight.
The largest structure features an auditorium, while others will house a library, a tea room, a six-channel sound installation and a climbing wall, all arranged around a central courtyard.
The concepts behind the design are a little obtuse and messy, but the Serpentine Pavilion is always a summer highlight anyway; a place of architectural innovation, cultural events and shady refuge for when the heat of the London summer gets too much to bear.
