Andrew Thomas, Partner at Grimshaw, has been appointed Managing Partner of Grimshaw’s London studio, taking over leadership from Kirsten Lees who steps down after four years in the position. Andrew took the position from 31 October 2022.

As part of this programme, teams and individuals within the studio contribute their expertise, knowledge and support to projects throughout London, such as the Octopus Community Plant Nursery Pavilion which opened in June this year, offering a place of both shelter and workshops for the community-led food and plant growing initiative.

“Stepping into the role of Managing Partner of Grimshaw London, I inherit a studio that’s in excellent business health, with a hugely talented team and an exciting and diverse collection of projects. We’re privileged to have inspiring, like-minded clients across many sectors and geographies, and we’re driven by the opportunity to work with them in response to their ambitions and the broader challenges of our times. The key focus of my tenure will be to continue to build on these fantastic opportunities, to deliver real social and environmental impact through our projects and to support the passion of our people to make a difference within the communities we operate.”
Andrew Thomas, London Managing Partner, Grimshaw

“Leading the studio through four and a half years, including managing, with the London partners, the impact of the pandemic across the business has led to major changes in how we all work, as well as place an even greater spotlight on equity and diversity in our industry and society at large. Andrew is well-placed to continue to evolve the studio within this context as it looks forward to its growth in the next few years.” Kirsten Lees, Partner, Grimshaw

Andrew Whalley OBE

Grimshaw’s Chairman, Andrew Whalley, has received an OBE (Officer of the Order of the British Empire) in the Queen’s New Year Honours List 2022. The honour, awarded in the international list, recognises Andrew’s services to architecture and environmental sustainability.

From the start of his career at Grimshaw in the 1980s Andrew has worked on many award-winning projects including the International Terminal at Waterloo in London, UK; Eden Project in Cornwall, UK; the redevelopment of the historic Paddington Station in London, UK; the Experimental and Performing Arts Building in Troy, New York, USA; the Fulton Centre in New York, USA and the design and delivery of Terra-The Sustainability Pavilion for Dubai Expo 2020.

Appointed Deputy Chairman of Grimshaw in 2011 and then succeeding Sir Nicholas Grimshaw as Chairman in 2019, Andrew has also overseen many of the practice’s public exhibitions and publications and has been instrumental in evolving the practice’s design approach, ambition and values. It is his leadership that has encouraged the development of Grimshaw’s international influence leading to, today, a network of studios across the world with over 550 people.

Andrew has also consolidated and extended the legacy of Nick Grimshaw’s practice across the wider architectural community: teaching and leading on academic programmes – including the Royal College of Art, Imperial College and the Architectural Association in London, UK and the University of Penn, Washington University in the USA and as an Adjunct Professor at Politecnico di Milano, Italy – and advocating research and development. His commitment to developing design solutions and innovations which take inspiration from nature and technology is most recently evidenced in Grimshaw’s partnership with the Glasgow School of Art to launch a new biomimetic design course. Andrew’s focus on the environmental responsibility of architecture continues as he propels Grimshaw, and the design industry, forward to net zero and regenerative design.

Andrew was elected to the AIA College of Fellows for Design in 2019 and awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Letters from his alma mater, The Glasgow School of Art. The Consortium for Sustainable Urbanisation honoured Andrew with their 2021 Champion Award

‘It’s fantastic to be recognised with an OBE in this year’s honours list.’ said Andrew Whalley. ‘I am incredibly proud of the architectural design industry and Grimshaw and the critical role we have to play with our clients, peers and stakeholders in tackling the climate and biodiversity crisis. This honour serves as more impetus to our environmental focus.’

‘Andrew is an ambassador for the importance of intelligent purposeful design,’ said Vincent Chang, Deputy Chairman of Grimshaw, ‘and the awarding of his OBE is recognition of his architectural design excellence, stewardship of projects, and commitment to environmental design as we all, as a design community, strive to deliver a better more sustainable, future.’

Grimshaw selected to revamp Duke University’s West Campus Union, NC, USA
Grimshaw is pleased to announce their appointment to transform Duke University’s West Campus Union in Durham, North Carolina, USA.

Built in 1931, the West Campus Union was once the social center of the west campus at this prestigious academic institution. Duke University hopes to modernize the prominent historic building and re-establish it as the epicenter of west campus student life by reorganizing existing layouts and adding features that promote a healthy and dynamic campus culture.

picture from architect

Inspired by the close-knit Duke community, the scheme will provide spaces where faculty, students, staff, and alumni can meet one another, for either planned or impromptu interactions. The design aims for careful attention to sustainability and intelligent use of resources that will reinforce Duke’s holistic approach to student lifestyles and well-being. This architecture practice will embark on a sensitive integration of new contemporary architecture in harmony with careful preservation of the historic structure.

The project will expand dining facilities into a multi-venue space with additional capacity for learning facilities and events. Innovative energy and engineering solutions will work in concert with programming development to deliver a solution that sustains the natural, social and built environment.

Grimshaw will work with Duke faculty, staff and students to foster spontaneous interaction and clarify circulation while celebrating the union’s original architectural character. The project is poised to establish the West Campus Union as an exciting campus hub for student and community engagement. Construction on the project is expected to begin in the summer of 2013.
