Have you seen ‘Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs?’ I haven’t, but if I had, I would have probably thought the Regent’s [Place Pavilion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/place-des-montralaises) came from that movie set (forget about the fact that it was an animated film).

Designed by [Carmody Groarke](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/covent-garden-apartment), the Regent’s Place Pavilion was the winning design for The Architecture Foundation competition back in 2007. Although I cannot get past the similarities to spaghetti, I think this is a gorgeous design. But it’s making me hungry.
