Every year the Serpentine Gallery in London’s Kensington Gardens invites an international architect to create an original temporary structure in this iconic park, showcasing what’s possible in architectural design. This year the architect who has taken up the challenge is Francis Kéré. Originally from a village in Burkina Faso where no one could read or write, his father sent him away to school. Now a highly acclaimed architect he’s bringing a bit of Burkina Faso to London with his Pavilion inspired by a tree - a place where people can come together under the shade of the branches to discuss everything from love to village affairs. For In the Studio, Nicky Barranger follows the creation from the first doodle in his notepad, through the design and construction to the final reveal.
