Serpentine Pavilion Big Toronto BIG's Relocated Opens As "Unzipped" In

The 2016 serpentine gallery by bjarke ingels group (big) found another use at toronto’s king street. A structure that is free­form yet rigorous, modular yet sculptural, both transparent and opaque, both box and blob.

Description provided by big architects. It was recently given the green light to be constructed on. For the serpentine pavilion 2016, we have attempted to design a structure that embodies multiple aspects that are often perceived as opposites:

The danish architect is in toronto to officially open unzipped, the installation his firm, big, created for the 2016 serpentine pavilion.

Big’s “unzipped wall,” which served as the 2016 serpentine pavilion in london, has been opened to the public in toronto under the new title “unzipped.” having been transported to the city and rebuilt in collaboration with westbank, new photographs by derek shapton show the completed pavilion standing as a temporary place of showcase. We decided to work with one of the most basic elements of architecture: The pavillion represented an “unzipped wall” made of 1802 stacked fibreglass boxes. It was reflective of big’s ‘pixilated’ style and mirrored how the aesthetic style will be incorporated into the king toronto.

Westbank, the canadian development firm, decided to introduce the pavilion to the urban realm in canada, and give it a new life.

Ingels’s resurrected serpentine pavilion is located at 533 king street west, just a short stroll away from toronto’s union station (which—incidentally—plays host to louis vuitton’s time capsule exhibition until the end of september). The installation’s patron is ian gillespie and westbank, the developer behind big’s king street west condo project, called westbank king street.
