Day-to-day lead on design and coordination up to achieving planning, liaising with company principal Rafael Vinoly to develop the design intent
My analysis on planning was crucial to steering the project to planning consent after a prolonged and faltering process with Westminster planners
Designed the exterior cladding with Rafael, which was widely received as a high quality contemporary but still contextual response
Added a “lower ground” to expand retail, allowed BOH to locate below street level to vastly increase the amount of "zone A" lettable space
Contributed innovative solutions to both cores and simplified HVAC strategy
Innovative solution to office floor tenant split to remove 3rd egress stair, with a benefit to net-gross ratio
