Liz Dolinar: Looking Out Week 5

This is the Serpentine Gallery pavilion by Frank Gehry. Constructed in 2008, it was a temporary summer pavilion that was designed as an amphitheater of sorts on the grounds of the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens (London). The pavilion provides shelter from the elements and terraced seating for visitors. The large, heavy-timber structure was designed as an "urban street" connecting the public park to the gallery building (plus, even though it's Frank Gehry, it's still pretty cool).
