Two months ago

This is maybe to long to track back but I just want to put this in my blog as a documentation for my self. Around two months ago I went to see the London Design and the Anti Design festival. There are amazing out of the box ideas. Humorous as well.

Colorful! Reminds me of ipods.

These products are displayed in tiny unseen galleries around red church street! Its a really good place to visit! 
We also went to Hyde park to see some art exhibition in the serpentine gallery. Unfortunatly the gallery was close but we see this red pavilion instead.

The "symphony of reds" or "pavilion of the red sun" is design by a renowned French architect Jean Nouvel. The temporary structure is a public space, a cafe and an auditorium. 

"Nouvel said he liked the surprise of finding the bright red pavilion - which echoes the red of England's iconic phone booths, letter boxes and London buses - among the green grass and trees of the royal park.
"The red for me was the idea of something very strong, energetic and optimistic and also complementary because the green, you can see that around," he said at the launch of the pavilion, which opens to the public on Saturday.
He imagined people spotting the building "through the trees and you think what is this, it's a circus?"." - written in the independent.co.uk






Below is the 'Turning the world up side down' exhibition in kensington park by an Indian born, British based artist Anish Kapoor. 



'Four of Kapoor's large scale, highly refelective stainless steel giant curved mirror surfaces have been instaled in hyde park. '







Kapoor has said of C-Curve that he wants to encourage the viewer to reassess their relationship with the space around them.
