The Summer House designed by architect Kunlé Adeyemi of NLÉ for the 2016 Architecture Programme at the Serpentine Gallery in London might be interpreted as an “inverse replica” of Queen Caroline’s Temple, the 1743 temple attributed to William Kent which inspires all four of the Summer Houses.
Inspired by Queen Caroline's Temple, a little stone building in neoclassical style built in 1743 and attributed to William Kent, Asif Khan’s Summer House built in the gardens of the Serpentine Gallery for the 2016 Architecture Programme is a place that encourages visitors to establish an intimate relationship with the landscape and with their own inner thoughts.
