De La Warr Pavilion, Art Deco arts centre in Bexhill-on-Sea, England.

The De La Warr Pavilion presents white concrete walls, steel frame construction, and expansive metal-framed windows along the seafront of East Sussex.

Architects Erich Mendelsohn and Serge Chermayeff created this Grade I listed building in 1935 through a competition initiated by the ninth Earl De La Warr.

The centre maintains galleries showcasing contemporary art exhibitions, including works by artists such as Tschabalala Self, Mike Silva, and Callum Hill.

The pavilion opens daily from 10 AM to 5 PM, with a café bar operating until 4:30 PM, offering dining experiences recognized by National Geographic.

Structural engineer Felix Samuely implemented an advanced welded steel frame construction method, setting new standards for British architecture in the 1930s.
