The four practice collaboration Hall McKnight, TAKA, Clancy Moore, Steve Larkin constructed two pavilions - one red and one yellow. These act as both a background to the life of the square and a series of markers between Granary Square to Cubitt Square and beyond to Cubitt Park. The Yellow pavilion explores how the phenomenon of the city is assembled from individual pieces. The Red Pavilion 'Big Red 'was designed as a collaboration between TAKA, Clancy Moore Architects and Steve Larkin Architects, who all share a studio in Dublin. Its red framework pops brilliantly against the blue sky in a beautiful harmony of primary colour. The expanse of space in the King’s Cross development is huge, so it’s great to see the structure sat in Cubitt Square adding some intrigue and brightness to the grove of cranes and half-finished buildings.
