A Colorful Pavilion In Contrast With Raw Brick Architecture? Yes, Please!

A pavilion with a multicolored geometric structure was designed as part of the London Festival of Architecture. Designer Yinka Ilori together with the architecture studio Pricegore developed the bright design of the pavilion, which was influenced by the traditional African textiles found in Lagos and the colorful markets of Peckham.

Named the Color Palace, it will be the home to a number of events which will take place over the next month as a part of the festival.

The pavilion is situated outside the Dulwich Picture Galler in London, which is the oldest art gallery designed by architect John Soane; it first opened to the public in 1817.

This is where ‘two worlds collide’ and make an exquisite contrast – from one side we have a contemporary colorful pavilion constructed in timber, steel, and concrete, and from the other side we have a delicate old building with a raw brick facade.

The Color Palace will be open during the London Festival of Architecture where different events will be held, including performances and activities, such as yoga. There will also be a ticket office with the idea to attract more visitors with the facade which represents an explosion of colors.

Take a look at this masterpiece!
