The Serpentine Gallery has supersized its summer pavilion programme and lined up five international talents to design its annual architectural showstopper. The expanded show-the last for long-serving Serpentine Galleries director Julia Peyton-Jones - features a temporary centrepiece 300m~2 pavilion designed by Danish practice BIG (founder Bjarke Ingels pictured right), together with four 'pop-up' summer houses. These 25m~2 structures are being drawn up by (far right, top to bottom) emerging UK star Asif Khan; veteran Paris-based Yona Friedman; Berlin and New York-based Barkow Leibinger; and former OMA architect Kunle Adeyemi. The quartet of standalone schemes will sit 'one minute's walk' away from the main gallery building in London's Kensington Gardens.
