Our design concept transforms the venue into a stage, offering visitors a theatrical experience that begins even before they step inside. The facade is conceived as a grand theatre curtain, evoking a sense of mystery and anticipation as it conceals the extraordinary experiences within. This playful design choice aims to engage visitors’ curiosity, creating an emotional connection as they approach the venue.
Drawing inspiration from the Battersea Power Station’s iconic white chimneys, we have reimagined their historical significance through a contemporary lens. The facade features a sleek, modern interpretation of these chimneys, seamlessly integrating their architectural language into a forward-looking design. The corrugated surface of the chimneys interacts dynamically with natural light, creating an ever-changing dance of light and shadow that brings the structure to life.
The structure features a dual-layer facade system combining functionality with striking visual impact. The inner layer forms the building’s core envelope, while the outer “curtain” facade, a flowing, wavy white veil, wraps the building in an elegant, sculptural form. Its undulating edges lift at key entrances, creating dynamic, inviting access points.
