Adam Nathaniel Furman unveils "monumentally joyful" pyramid at King's Cross
Designer Adam Nathaniel Furman has created an installation called Proud Little Pyramid at King's Cross in London that was unveiled in LGBT+ Pride month.
Created to celebrate the reopening of King's Cross following coronavirus lockdown, the Proud Little Pyramid is located in Granary Square.
Furman hopes that the structure, which is wrapped in seating, will bring joy to those returning to the area.

"The idea was to kind of create something that is monumentally joyful," he told Dezeen. "So it's an anti-monument monument. It's ridiculously fun, over the top, camp."
It is decorated with Furman's signature colourful motifs
Built from the recycled structure of a Christmas tree installation that previously stood in Coal Drop's Yard, the 9.5-metre-high pyramid is covered in Furman's signature colourful motifs.
Surrounding the pyramid is a mirrored plinth with four corner towers that functions as bench seating.
