LSE Design Competition - STUDIOS Runner-Up
DATEOctober 24, 2025
COMPETITION
We are proud to have been shortlisted and named runner-up in the London School of Economics’ international design competition to reimagine its landmark building at 61 Aldwych.
Developed in collaboration with Ayre Chamberlain Gaunt and Miltiadou Cook Mitzman, our proposal offered a sensitive yet forward‑looking vision for revitalising this historic building and tying it into the overall LSE Quarter.This recognition highlights our continued commitment to sustainable, context‑driven design and our passion for transforming heritage architecture to meet the aspirations of modern academic life.
Congratulations to Feix & Merlin and Alison Brooks Architects on their winning scheme, and to the London School of Economics for promoting thoughtful, sustainable design. We are honoured to have participated.
