nla pavilion

This project was the result of collaboration between the School of Architecture at the University of East London, New London Architecture, the Building Centre of London and Ramboll Engineers.

The project formed a portal between the city of Venice, during the time of its Biennale entitled ‘Fundamentals’, and London, as it hosted its own festival of architecture entitled ‘capital.’ The London Pavilion, a larger version of its Venetian sibling (Stargate), sits in central London’s South Crescent outside the Building Centre, home to New London Architecture, an organisation focused on understanding and celebrating London’s built heritage while challenging its policymakers, and architects to bridge the past and the future.
