The 2026 Serpentine Pavilion (London) is built on a deceptively simple idea: a wall. Designed by Mexico City based practice LANZA Atelier and officially titled ‘a serpentine’, the pavilion is a refined take on the traditional English crinkle-crankle wall as a winding brick structure that snakes across Kensington Gardens. The wall though simple, creates a series of sheltered and open spaces for gathering, pause and meditation. Inspired by the nearby Serpentine Lake, the pavilion marks the 25th edition of the renowned annual commission.
