The latest pavilion in the long-running series references the architect’s own heritage, as well as the architecture of West Africa

This year’s Serpentine Pavilion, designed by renowned Lebanese architect Lina Ghotmeh, has completed and is set to open to the public on Friday 9th June.

The pavilion’s title, À table, is intended as an allusion to the French call to sit down for a meal, with its connotations of human interaction. Gotmeh said: “À table in an invitation to dwell together, in the same space and around the same table. It is an encouragement to enter into a dialogue, to convene and to think about we could reinstate and re-establish our relationship to nature and the Earth.”
