Grimshaw

Un nouveau siège pour l’Inria – l’Institut national de recherche en sciences et technologies du numérique – deviendra un pôle d’excellence pour la science et l’innovation technologique. Et c’est une excellente nouvelle que l'agence Grimshaw ait été sélectionné, en groupement aux côtés de DEMATHIEU BARD BATIMENT ILE DE FRANCE, SAGUEZ & PARTNERS, OTEIS Conseil & Ingénierie, Eckersley O'Callaghan et TECHSOL INGENIERIE, pour participer au concours en vue de l'attribution du marché global de performance. Situé à Versailles, ce projet, piloté par l’EPAURIF (Etablissement Public d'Aménagement Universitaire de la Région Ile-De-France), redéfinira l’avenir des espaces de travail dédiés à la recherche. #workplace #researchandinnovation #headquarters

Three years in and the Elizabeth line post-opening evaluation report published by Transport for London and the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom, tells the story beyond the journey. The scale of the impact of the Elizabeth line on communities, business and the way Londoners live and move, is fantastic to see evidenced. Beautiful infrastructure design really is a game changer: making the city, the commute, and travel just that much better. Read more in the report here : https://lnkd.in/dZUcBxvV Working across the Elizabeth line the line-wide design team of Grimshaw, Maynard Design Consultancy, AtkinsRéalis and EQUATION Lighting Design was part of a wider Crossrail architectural design team, interfacing with architects across the line’s 10 new stations including JOHN MCASLAN & PARTNERS LIMITED, Weston Williamson, Hawkins\Brown, Aedas, WilkinsonEyre, BDP (Building Design Partnership Ltd), Adamson Associates Architects, Allies and Morrison and Fereday Pollard. #sustainablecities #transportdesign #elizabethline #infrastructure

The proposal by Heathrow for the expansion of Heathrow airport has been selected by the UK government as the scheme to take forward in informing the ongoing review of the Airports National Policy Statement (ANPS). As part of the design team working with Heathrow Grimshaw welcomes this important milestone: to bring forward an aviation hub that enables the opportunity and responsibility for innovation and economic growth for the UK, and a commitment to delivering benchmark sustainable design that will set the future of aviation.    #heathrow #aviation #expansion #masteplanning

We’re honoured to share that the Sydney Metro City Stations project has received the 2025 Walter Burley Griffin Award for Urban Design at the National Architecture Awards. This project is a collective achievement, an unprecedented convergence of architectural disciplines, civic purpose, and urban regeneration. Eight stations, each unique yet harmonised within a unified transport framework, now anchor a new rhythm across the city. Grimshaw is proud to contribute to this legacy through our design for Martin Place Station, a spatial intersection of movement, memory, and civic scale. We share this recognition with our collaborators at JPW, Tzannes, Lendlease, ASPECT Studios, Elke Haege Landscape Architects, Arup, and the extraordinary public artists Mikala Dwyer, Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro, Tina Havelock Stevens, Debra Beale, Stevie Fieldsend, and the reimagined works of Tom Bass and Douglas Annand. We also acknowledge the broader Sydney Metro team and the many hands who shaped this network into something more than infrastructure: a public realm of lasting meaning. Thank you to the Australian Institute of Architects and the jury for recognising the intent behind the work. #UrbanDesign #Architecture #PublicSpace #CivicInfrastructure #SydneyMetro #Grimshaw #WalterBurleyGriffin #MartinPlace #DesignForMovement

Grimshaw was pleased to contribute to Data Centres: Making Room for Sydney’s Growing Digital Appetite, hosted by the Committee for Sydney.   Associate Principal Erik Escalante presented insights from our Venice Biennale 2025 exhibition, highlighting how data centres can evolve from isolated infrastructure to integrated civic assets. As urban systems become more interdependent, these facilities offer the potential to support energy resilience, water circularity and community-scaled utility. They can also underpin urban renewal precincts that integrate industry with housing.   From thermal loops and microgrids to embedded water systems, the case study illustrated how digital infrastructure can support both liveability and long-term sustainability when designed as part of the city.   More on the project here: https://lnkd.in/e-x-q5ea   Thank you to the excellent panel, including Simon Draper, Kiersten Fishburn, Kek Tang and Paul Higham, for the stimulating conversation. Thanks also to Matthew Lee, Chris Suttor and Alex Hooper for their contributions. We extend our appreciation to Jacobs and Endeavour Energy (NSW) for supporting and hosting the event.

The intersection of academia and industry, of campus and city life and knowledge as anchor to a city quarter sits at the heart of the Grimshaw and GDP Architects designs for Monash University Malaysia Campus in Kuala Lumpur.   Fantastic to see our concept for this development start to come to life with this announcement of the partnership between Tun Razak Exchange and Monash University Malaysia, creating a new interactive vertical campus - an eco-system for education.    #campusdesign #education #knowledgecity #innovation 

The Parramatta Aquatic Centre (PAC) has been recognised on the global stage at the 2025 IOC IAKS Architecture Prize. Presented by the International Olympic Committee – IOC and IAKS International, the prize highlights design that is sustainable, inclusive and forward thinking. From 69 international submissions, nine projects were selected. PAC is the only Australian recipient.   At Grimshaw, we believe design holds its greatest power when shaped with purpose. PAC reflects that belief through a partnership of alignment and intent with the City of Parramatta, Andrew Burges Architects, McGregor Coxall, and a team deeply committed to the work.   PAC brings together civic generosity, spatial clarity and long-term vision. It meets community need while offering a place of lasting quality.   With appreciation to the City of Parramatta for the trust placed in us, our project leads Josh Henderson and Elena Lucio Bello, and to all who contributed their skill and care to this project.   #Grimshaw #IAKS #IAKSCongress2025 #AquaticCentre #AquaticDesign #AustralianPools #SportsArchitecture #SportsInnovation #FutureofSport

Katarzyna Jurkiewicz joins NSW State Design Review Panel   Grimshaw Principal Katarzyna Jurkiewicz joins the New South Wales State Design Review Panel, with her term commencing in November 2025.   Kat brings deep expertise in infrastructure, transport and industrial design to a program that shapes many of the state’s most significant public projects. Her work is defined by a regenerative mindset and a focus on enduring civic and environmental benefit.   This appointment reflects Grimshaw’s ongoing commitment to public service through design and the thoughtful shaping of the built environment.

An infrastructure for wellbeing: urban, public spaces are critical social assets, potential pockets of life that bind our individual everyday together. Grimshaw's Al Farjan's Playgrounds is a prototype – developed as part of Qatar Olympic Committee’s strategic plan to develop a culture of sports – a concept for integrated urban sports and recreation that puts wellbeing and people’s health deep into, and inherently part of, urban community living. The project is part of this year’s Dubai Design Week Dubai Design District (d3) Architecture Exhibition and responds to the exhibition theme of community, bringing forward the responsibility and impact design has on creating equitable communities that can tackle real societal issues. These 'playgrounds' are conceived as a kit of parts, a deployable hub of activity, confronting sedentary lifestyle and igniting social interaction. Al Farjan Playgrounds: https://lnkd.in/e9SpCemi Dubai Design Week runs from 4-9 November and the exhibition, held in partnership with the RIBA Gulf Chapter, can be found at Building 6 Atrium, Dubai Design District (d3).
