WARMTH, WELLBEING AND WOW FACTOR

Foster + Partners

A major and ultra-prestigious application in the City of London could really put U.S. red oak on the European map. Until now, the European market must have been something of a frustration for U.S. red oak suppliers. The species is America’s most prolific hardwood, so, in those terms, its most sustainable. In the U.S. itself it is used extensively in a huge range of construction, interiors and manufacturing applications, while other markets, such as China and Japan, also cannot get enough. But in Europe, red oak has lagged some way behind its ubiquitous U.S. white cousin in popularity.

Warner Stand at Lord's Cricket Ground

Populous

Populous, the global architecture and design practice, has completed work on the redevelopment of the Warner Stand at the world famous Lord’s Cricket Ground in London. In fulfilling the brief of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), the owner of Lord’s, Populous has designed a new stand that is deliberately bold and contemporary in nature but, at the same time, sympathetic and sensitive to its place within the most historic of sporting arenas.
