The <a href="https://archinect.com/firms/cover/22821/mass-studies" target="_blank">Mass Studies</a> founder debuted preliminary renders of their winning design this morning ahead of the exhibition&rsquo;s June opening. His team's entry will appear as a star-like hub of activity to visitors, harkening them into experiencing a variety of communal spaces they say have resulted from a careful study of its <a href="https://archinect.com/news/tag/14325/serpentine-pavilion" target="_blank">past predecessors</a>.</p> <p>For the 23rd overall edition of the Serpentine Pavilion, a constellation of smaller structures will form around a central void space inspired by the vernacular Madang courtyard features found in small residential structures across Korea. Each of these five separate spaces will have a name and programmatic function while doubling as &ldquo;content machines&rdquo; and devised to montage with the corresponding flexible open areas and park surrounding the pavilion.&nbsp;</p> <figure><p><a href="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/8f/8f379a04781dc13319f841c0b68fea65.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=1028" target="_blank"><img src="https://archinect.gumlet.io/uploads/8f/8f379a04781dc13319f841c0b68fea65.jpg?auto=compress%2Cformat&amp;w=514"></a></p><figcaption>Serpentine Pavilion 2024 designed by Minsuk Cho, Mass Studies.
