Last week the Serpentine Galleries launched a new catalogue to accompany their 2016 Architecture Programme.
The publication features a series of essays commissioned to accompany each of the structures. Beatrice Galilee has written about the main pavilion – an ‘unzipped’ line of fibreglass frames by Bjarke Ingels Group, whilst four other architectural commentators have contributed essays on the four Summer Houses by Asif Khan, Barkow Leibinger, Yona Friedman and Kunlé Adeyemi.
The catalogue is available to purchase here.
