Zaha Hadid's 2007 Serpentine Gallery Pavilion put up for sale at Chatsworth House

Lilas was commissioned because the more ambitious Serpentine Gallery Pavilion by Olafur Eliasson and Snøhetta was behind schedule
Zaha Hadid's Lilas pavilion is the focal point of this year's Beyond Limits exhibition at Chatsworth House ? an annual showcase of contemporary outdoor sculpture, organised by London auction house Sotheby's.
Now erected in the ground of Chatsworth House, the group of toad-stool like structures feature the curves that are characteristic of Hadid's designs
The structure was originally designed as a temporary shelter for the Serpentine Gallery's annual summer party in 2007, because the more ambitious pavilion by Olafur Eliasson and Snøhetta was behind schedule. The group of toad-stool like structures features the white curves that are characteristic of Hadid's designs. It rises 5.5 metres above the ground, and has smooth sides that echo the design of Hadid's 2013 Serpentine Sackler Gallery.
