Last Thursday HTS visited the Serpentine Pavilion 2017, designed by Francis Kéré.
Inspired by the tree that serves as a central meeting point for life in his home town of Gando, Francis Kéré designed a responsive Pavilion, that seeks to connect its visitors to nature – and each other.
An expansive roof, supported by a central steel framework, mimics a tree’s canopy, allowing air to circulate freely while offering shelter against London rain and summer heat.
