Reimagining West London’s iconic exhibition centre for a new era.

About the project

It includes a 1,500-seat theatre, a world class performing arts venue, a cinema and a conference centre, in addition to two hotels, coworking office and studio block, restaurants, and 2.5 acres of new public space alongside and above the existing listed buildings.

This large-scale, £1.3 billion masterplan, designed by Heatherwick Studios and SPPARC Architects, is London’s most ambitious redevelopment, seeking to transform Olympia’s 130-year-old exhibition centre into a leading cultural centre.

It comprises a world-class performing arts venue, 1,500 seat theatre, cinema and conference centre, in addition to 550,000 sq ft of office accommodation, two hotels, over 30 restaurants, bars and cafes, and 2.5 acres of public space.

Our expert team worked closely with the project design team from concept stage through to planning and beyond, to provide accurate guidance on all light advisory matters, including rights of light, daylight and sunlight, solar glare and light pollution.

Completion is planned for 2025.
