I am so sorry. Goodbye was first created for the Tatton Park Biennal 2008, and has been built again for Radical Nature: Outdoor commission at Barbican. The double-domed pavilion takes its inspiration from the structures built by utopian communities in the west coast of the US in the 1970s. Designed as a tea house, it provides a place of rest and shelter, where one is served hibiscus tea.

They have also constructed a wooden cabin called Fantasy Island in their own arboretum, a densely wooded property on a steep incline :
