The Southbank Centre of the Hayward Gallery in London, England has become the home of a new exhibition called “Psycho Buildings”. The installation includes a roof top lake, designed like an infinity pool, looking like you could row yourself right over the edge; a steel-plated “Life Tunnel” by Atelier Bow-Bow; a red fabric “Staircase V” by Korean artist Do Ho Suh and an inflated transparent fabric geodesic sphere named “Observatory, Air-Port-City”, which you climb a staircase to the roof and proceed to roll and bounce around while observers below enjoy the view. The exhibition runs from May 28 to August 25, 2008.
 This exhibition marks The Hayward’s 40th anniversary as one of the world’s most architecturally unique exhibition venues. Taking its title from a book by artist Martin Kippenberger, the exhibition brings together the work of artists who create habitat-like structures and architectural environments that are mental and perceptual spaces as much as physical ones. Viewers enter and explore a series of atmospheric, spatially dynamic constructions that use elements of light, colour, smell and design to trigger profound visceral responses that heighten their attention to the relationship between the individual and their surroundings.
