London-based Robin Monotti Architects shared with us “White Cube for London”, their entry for the Living Architecture and Artangel “A Room for London” Competition, for a roof-top hospitality structure to be built in the year of the 2012 London Olympics. More images and architect’s description after the break.
The white cube straddles the edge of the roof of the Queen Elizabeth Hall at the South Bank Centre. It is positioned for the interior to have both a wide over the Thames and Westminster and towards sunset. Due to the slight overhang, passersby will see the white cube as a roof-top feature from the terraces below.
