Constructed of cross-laminated timber, the new park pavilion designed by Bell Phillips Architects is to be the centrepiece of Elephant Park in south London. The park is part of a £2.3 billion regeneration scheme led by Lendlease, which will create 3000 new homes and establish new public green spaces. The pavilion encircles a mature London Plane tree and incorporates a kiosk, public washroom facilities, a publicly accessible, multi-functional space and a roof terrace. The pavilion enriches the experience of the park ‚ offering opportunities to rest under the shade of the dense tree canopy, or socialise over a coffee.
