Ai Weiwei/Herzog & de Meuron pavilion opens at the Serpentine


Fours years after collaborating on the 'Bird's Nest' Olympic stadium in Beijing, the Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron and Ai Weiwei reunited to design the 2012 Serpentine pavilion. It is the 12th in the series which began with Zaha Hadid in 2000 and has included giants such as Oscar Niemeyer, Alvaro Siza, Rem Koolhaas and Frank Gehry. You can see more images of the pavilion here.
