Blant tidligere paviljongarkitekter finner vi blant annet Zaha Hadid, Daniel Libeskind, Oscar Niemeyer, og Eduardo Souto de Moura.
Eliasson arbeider også med flere arkitektonisk rettede prosjekt, blant annet har han ansvaret for utsmykking av foajeen i den nye operaen i Bjørvika, men han er kanskje mest kjent for The Weather Project i Tate Modern i 2003:

The Pavilion will act as a ‘laboratory’ every Friday night with artists, architects, academics and scientists leading a series of public experiments. The programme, conceived by Eliasson and Thorsen with the Serpentine, will begin in September and culminate in an extraordinary, two-part, 48-hour marathon laboratory event exploring the architecture of the senses.
The Serpentine Pavilion 2007 is a spectacular and dynamic building. The timber-clad structure resembles a spinning top and brings a dramatic vertical dimension to the more usual single level Pavilion. A wide spiralling ramp makes two complete turns, ascending from the Gallery’s lawn to the seating area and continues upwards, culminating at the highest point in a view across Kensington Gardens and down into the chamber below.
The Serpentine Summer Pavilion 2007 åpnes 7. juli og står fram til 30. november.
