The Serpentine Pavilion in Hyde Park, London is Gehry's first structure in England. The pavilion stands out in Gehry's typical grand style. "I was thinking of garden parties, the warmth of timber, of stripes in garden pavilions," bdonline quoted Gehry as saying. Much like the John Lewis Department store mentioned in my previous post, Gehry reacted to the complexity of computer-aided designs. "So much architecture now is designed in a computer… I see shapes that are recognisable from those programs, so maybe in a way this is a bit of a reaction – but not an angry reaction". (bdonline)
