Out next shortlisted entry for the 2026 Antepavilion is FEATHERED FOLLY by Jonny Buckland of Studio Saar

The Feathered Folly is a reclaimed habitat structure for the rear of Hackney warehouse overlooking the canal backwater, designed to support the Black Redstart, a bird in decline whose urban breeding habitat has been steadily lost through redevelopment. Rather than creating a pavilion centred for human occupation, the project proposes a vertical guildhall for bird life that taps into the city’s existing ecological infrastructure.

In giving form to the needs of the Black Redstart, The Feathered Folly reframes the canal edge as a place of interdependent occupation, productivity and care.

Antepavilion Workshop 2025: Future Archaeology.
The structure is the footprint of a 2 bed apartment in the partially demolished/redeveloped .
As with Southwark’s ‘regeneration’ projects in Elephant and Castle and the Heygate Estate, the project has faced significant criticism.
The project has resulted in thousands of displaced people and an overall loss of council housing and public green space. While it was scheduled to be completed by 2023, as of June only 837 of the promised 2,300 affordable homes have been completed.
Future Archeology stands as a monument for the dying council housing ideology, to be rediscovered by future archeology

In celebration of Moonument approaching its final stages in time for the full moon launch party on the 9th of August (Eventbrite – link for tickets in bio), let’s have a look back at some of the work produced by .co for his winning entry!

This video of the model showcases the structure’s transformation as the viewpoint moves East to West. From the roof of Hoxton Docks, Moonument will go from full moon to mirage moon, to new moon to crescent moon.

Now, .co has been moving along translating his vision into reality in collaboration with .

The final structure is built from an elliptical lattice of steel cladded plywood A-Frames positioned in front of a steel disc. The design of the lattice allows for the transformation of the moon along its different viewpoints.

Come see Moonument in person at our full moon party on Saturday 9 August. Join for a full bar, DJ, live music and aerial acts!
