The Architectural Association’s (AA) summer pavilion has gone on show in London’s Bedford Square.
Made from Finnforest Kerto LVL, Driftwood was designed by Danecia Sibingo, a third-year student, and a team that includes Lyn Hayek, Yoojin Kim, and Taeyoung Lee.
The pavilion was selected by a panel of seven judges from the worlds of architecture, engineering, design, media and ecology. A spokesperson for the AA said it was neither “art nor architecture but a sculptural installation and prototype that defies classification”.
Now in its fourth year of building pavilions, Intermediate Unit 2 pavilion projects are led by tutors Charles Walker and Martin Self with technical advice from Arup.
The unit challenges students to create architectural space through the construction of a sustainable timber pavilion. Driftwood is on show in Bedford Square until July 25.
