Haworth Tompkins has won the Innovation of the Year category at the AJ100 Awards, for the Modular Auditorium most recently used at @sohoplace. The new theatre incorporates a modular, highly flexible auditorium, the latest evolution of a widely-applicable system developed as a research project. The judges agreed that Haworth Tompkins had applied its architectural skills to help develop a clever and efficient product with huge potential. ‘They are brilliant theatre designers … who were able to work with manufacturers who could provide a critical element,’ said one judge. ‘Their skill as architects has really been applied to the product.’ Another remarked: ‘What I love about this is that London is the greatest city on earth for theatre and Haworth Tompkins are the greatest theatre designers in this country. Hopefully this can facilitate small-scale fringe theatres all over the world. What a great legacy that would be.’
