A Room for London
A Room for London is a temporary structure located on the roof of the Queen Elizabeth Hall on London's South Bank.[1] The structure, designed by architect David Kohn[2] is described as "a one-bedroom installation"[1] and is shaped to appear like a boat perched on top of a building.
