An illustration for the design of a family of ‘tree houses’ set within an immersive landscape, which has received planning consent. Not a bad place to wake up to.

The Camden Highline was a competition with over 80 entries. It would have been a fun one to deliver and good to Field Operations as they work to make it a reality.

Cambridge Market Square joins the Ideas Without a Home thread. Because of the daily market, this significant urban square is not able to provide a variety of events, installations and cultural celebrations throughout the year. In an effort to create more than a market square, we devised a system of nested market stalls that could dock on the edges of the square to allow the staging of the square with a multitude of events and greater visibility of the architecture that edges the space.

This is our competition entry for London Metropolitan University for a new campus common next to Daniel Libeskind’s iconic building.
The design consisted of a central flexible area with peeled edges for seating and sculpted central steps to provide informal perch edges. The perimetre of the ‘common’ provides an intimate garden, lounging lawns, a shade garden and a plinth for students to exhibit their work.

A tessellating paving system captures fountain mist as well as rain water to create a reflective surface inspired by the #giantscauseway and the #gherkinbuilding, bringing natural light into a space in front of a charming church overshadowed by towering skyscrapers.

The proposition created stronger connections with the Middle Mill River, introduced a civic square in place of a car park and provided a maker space for students to explore their own creative pursuits.

The Dover Esplanade competition proposal linked the esplanade to the beach with an elegant ramp sequence that also created seating edges. The ‘White Sands of Dover’ provided pools of sand cut into timber decking. Vera Lynn’s Blue Birds of Dover were made visible via kinetic light sculptures from Jason Bruges Studio and the Poets Pier picked up on key literary contributions that were inspired by the place where the sea meets the land. This was an enjoyable design process and a hard loss, one of those that sticks with you.

Design competition for Jubilee Gardens, London. Jubilee Gardens, developed as a system for expanding and contracting programmes. We also explored cultural overlays and a changing landscape that included and urban beach, a cactus garden for Cinco de Mayo and vibrant lighting projections on dark raining days. Imagine lights that would change by texting them.

London in Bloom! 🌱 🌳 🌱
#strandaldwych picked up a gold award🏆at the 57th LONDON IN BLOOM awards, with a ceremony held at Royal Horticultural Society Wisley. It’s meaningful because it was at the extraordinary world of horticulture that is RHS Wisley that I observed and learned how plants fit together and change through the seasons.
This award is a remarkable recognition considering the Strand was 4 lanes of polluting cars with nothing but tarmac 3 short years ago. The transformational scheme introduced 1,750m2 of biodiverse planting consisting of:
—1,025 shrubs
—8,366 herbaceous plants
—37,395 bulbs
—244 ferns
—3,739 grasses
—170 square metres of turf
It also introduced 44 trees.
The award looks for impact and #strandaldwych is gone from a place to pass through to a place to pass time.
