Original from\u00a0Gando, Burkino Faso, the architect has been\u00a0commissioned to design the Serpentine Pavilion 2017, responding to the brief with a bold, innovative structure that brings his characteristic sense of light and life to the lawns of Kensington Gardens.<\/p>\n

K\u00e9r\u00e9 built\u00a0his reputation on\u00a0his socially\u00a0driven and sustainable approach to architecture. He was lucky to be the first\u00a0son of the head of his village, being that way the only child allowed to attended school. Guided for his roots, the first\u00a0project as an architect was a primary school for the village, which he raised the money for himself.<\/p>\n

To transmit his strong connections\u00a0with nature, this year for the pavilion, he inspired himself is a tree that serves as a central meeting point for life in his hometown of Gando. The main goal of the project is to\u00a0design a responsive Pavilion that seeks to connect its visitors to nature and to each other.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Burkina Faso, I am accustomed to being confronted with climate and natural landscape as a harsh reality,\u201d said K\u00e9r\u00e9.\u00a0\u201cFor this reason, I was interested in how my contribution to this royal park could not only enhance the visitor\u2019s experience of nature, but also provoke a new way for people to connect with each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

An expansive roof, supported by a central steel framework,\u00a0mimics a tree\u2019s canopy, allowing air to circulate freely while offering shelter against London rain and summer heat. \u201cEvery path and tree, and even the Serpentine lake, were all carefully designed\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n

The architect claims his design is intended to build on the park\u2019s\u00a0rich history, as well as to respond to the British climate.\u00a0\u201cI am fascinated by how this artificial landscape offered a new way for people in the city to experience nature\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n
