Every year, The Serpentine Gallery enlists an architect to design a structure to sit on the front lawn in London's famous Hyde Park. This year, starchitect and WTC-designer Bjarke Ingels will reveal his futuristic take on a brick wall.

Last year, an architecture studio based in Spain, Selgascano, created a luminous, iridescent cave-like funhouse, Wired reports. In 2014, Chilean architect Smiljan Radić created a translucent, fiberglass shell that glows depending on the time of day.
For 2016, working with one of the most basic elements of architecture, the brick wall is transformed by Bjarke into a more fluid, free-form structure.

More than 1,800 hollow rectangular fiberglass frames will present a Lego-like brick wall. Visitors will be able to walk through and around—and even sit on—the structure. The pavilion will be up from June 10 through Oct. 9. [Wired]
