60 Ludgate Hill and 30 Old Bailey
This design will replace two existing buildings built in the 1960’s and together will transform the streetscape around a new public space, inspired by the theatrical Piazza di San Ignazio in Rome. Polychromatic glazed frontages to the new piazzetta will also highlight an original and distinctive terracotta facade on Old Bailey. With 60 Ludgate Hill, Fletcher Priest extends its contextual work in the City with a building that responds to and celebrates the complex historic fabric around the Cathedral precinct.

Old Market Square
Officially reopened in 2007, Old Market Square is not only one of the oldest public squares in the UK, but also the second largest after Trafalgar Square in London. The space has since hosted some of its largest events including free concerts, fireworks displays, a fine foods fair and a bulb and flower market.

Singapore Gardens
This landscape design will include the following key features: A water theme, Water gardens, Food Gardens, Aquadetum and a Water Arena. It was the winner of a competition to design one of three garden areas on the waterfront in Singapore. Neil Porter said: “The Gardens by the Bay project will create a garden in the very heart of Singapore – our aim is to create a scheme that will set new standards for gardens and parks in the future, a scheme that will become a major milestone in landscape and urban park design.”
