Vent Structure by Thomas Heatherwick

A ventilation structure was required for an underground electricity substation below a public space near St.Paul’s Cathedral, London. The client approached Heatherwick Studio, unhappy with the way in which an existing proposal, for a single large vent, relegated the surrounding space to a corridor.  Design by Thomas Heatherwick.

Plank

Plank is a six-foot length of solid wood, which can be folded into a coffee table, side table or stool and folded out again to make a plank. It works because its four joints, engineered to high tolerances, cross the board at slight angles, causing it to spiral as it folds.   Designed by Thomas Heatherwick.

Rolling Bridge - Thomas Heatherwick

“Today, architects are usually just combining this façade system and that glazing system and this climate-control system. They are specifiers, not designers.” – Heatherwick on architects
