CRYSTAL CASTLES
Crystal is a traditional 15th-anniversary gift. In fitting contemporary style, the material is
reinvented for the 15th annual Serpentine Pavilion, the first images of which were
released in late March. Conceived by the technocratic Madrid-based SelgasCano, the
summertime installation resembles a spoke of irregular chrysalis forms, wrapped in a
double skin of opaque and translucent ETFE plastic. SelgasCano is employing the
synthetic material in multiple colors to reflect the hues of Royal Park. This year's folly,
which opens to the public June 25, is the architecture firm's first British commission.
