Compared to past commissions, the 2012 pavilion is more subtle and has received considerable criticism for delivering less “wow” (and for its pool of water unintentionally drawing insects). Still, it’s a contemplative and restful place (and the bugs weren’t bad at all during this blogger’s visit) and feels less intrusive and big for the sake of being big as previous pavilions.
