The Serpentine Pavilion 2016 is designed by the prominent Danish architect Bjarke Ingels (Bjarke Ingels Group/BIG).

The Pavilion is part of the prestigious annual summer exhibition in Kensington Gardens in London – one of the most visited architectural and design exhibitions in the world – and is used as a café by day and as a forum for performing artists, writers, and musicians at night.

Various WOCA products have been used to enhance the beautiful structure and warmth of the wood.

The exquisite flooring and furniture have been cleaned to get rid of any dirt, then primed to add adhesion and durability and finally oiled for maximum protection.
