THE GARSINGTON OPERA HOUSE AT WORMSLEY ESTATE, WORMSLEY, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE, UNITED KINGDOM, ARCHITECT DENNIS GILBERT, Taking its cue from the traditional Japanese pavilion [in its use of sliding screens extended platforms verandas and bridges to link it to the landscape] the temporary opera house will be erected each year for the opera season. It is made from a limited palette of materials ? timber fabric and steel. It combines transparency and lightness with a sense of intimacy and awareness of the surrounding estate. Built by Unusual Rigging. Wormsley Estate is the home of Mark Getty and the Getty family.
