As a senior architect in the UK, I am hugely inspired by the work of Thomas’ studio. He is leading the way in creative sustainable design and will no doubt excite and encourage many young architects, especially those who are trying to find there way.
Amazing I would love to have someone like Thomas Heatherwick on a future podcast ep! Also, I myself as an architect would love to work for this company
Imagine a city of bubbles like sea foam along the oceanfront . For years I have wondered if deeply anchored dome shaped buildings would be able to withstand hurricane force winds. The recent devastation in Florida by hurricane Ian demonstrates the failure of flat surfaced angular construction to withstand high winds. A smooth surface without angles seems much more likely to survive the onslaught of high winds in hurricane-prone locations. I envision a dome shape with possible moving parts to be raised in fair weather and lowered in high wind situations. Perhaps even made flood proof from high water situations.

I love how the older gentleman is very keen on British architecture but very little else.
