Earls Court appointment for HT 29.11.22

Following a series of design competitions over the summer, Haworth Tompkins has been selected as one of the practices working with The Earls Court Development Company on their plans for the redevelopment of the former Earls Court Exhibition Centres site. A total of 15 architectural practices were chosen to submit ideas and concepts resulting in three teams being appointed to deliver innovative, engaging and sustainable architecture for the first phase. Haworth Tompkins and Maccreanor Lavington will collaborate on the first homes within Kensington & Chelsea, with a significant cultural offer, located in the heart of the site. All the newly appointed teams will work alongside masterplanners Hawkins Brown and Studio Egret West to develop detailed designs for the first phase of the emerging masterplan. This early phase will include up to 1,300 mixed tenure homes including affordable homes which will be delivered alongside a mix of cultural spaces and offices, providing opportunities for hundreds of jobs. Construction is set to commence in 2025.
