This edition of the Venice Biennale includes 65 national pavilions, 11 collateral events, and over 750 participants in the international exhibition curated by Italian architect and engineer Carlo Ratti. Entitled Intelligens: Natural Artificial Collective, its stated aim is to make Venice a ‘living laboratory’. But Ratti’s exhibition in the Arsenale has been hit by mixed reviews.

The project retains and extends a former three-storey concrete-framed workshop near Bethnal Green tube station, which was once slated for demolition. Client and developer Unity Land (formerly DAO Estates) commissioned Carmody Groarke to reinvent the building, reusing as much as possible. Inspired by the skinny-framed buildings of New York’s Soho district, the building sits on a very narrow site on top of a vent tunnel for the tube line.

What is the concept and how did you react to the site? When we started designing this pavilion quite a lot of things came to mind. One is that it’s a celebration of the summer months in the Kensington Garden. A lot of people come here from all different parts of the world, as well as London. It has a presence for a short period of time – June to October – so there is a sense of temporality. It also has an afterlife after this location.
