Time Out says

This highly anticipated architecture showcase features the innovative designs and projects of Heatherwick Studio, one of the most closely-watched architectural firms in the world. Established in London in 1994, the studio has undertaken projects in many cities worldwide, including New York, Singapore, Shanghai and Hong Kong. 

Studio founder Thomas Heatherwick, whose designs are imbued with elements of the natural world, is inspired by the ‘soulfulness’ of small objects by the craftspeople and artisans he observed during his upbringing. He strives to bring the same sense of humanity to large buildings and urban spaces by creating a flow between work, leisure and living spaces. 

At the exhibition you'll find 28 major projects of Heatherwick Studio, each resulting from an elaborate trial and error process, where familiar structures and functions are reassessed, and new ideas are realised. The projects are presented from six different viewpoints: ‘Coming Together’, ‘Connecting with Everyone’,  ‘Experiencing Sculptural Space’, ‘Feeling Nature in Urban Space’, ‘Bringing Memories to the Future’ and ‘Playing and Using’. 

As the world emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic and re-evaluates its relationship with both the built and natural environments, Heatherwick Studio's designs feel more evocative and relevant than ever.
