An opera house on the bank of the Nile, under a travertine roof that moves like a wave.
A house for music and for the city: a main hall with tiered balconies, a multi-level foyer with lounges and a café facing the river, and garden terraces and a river walk open to everyone.
Two ribbons of pale travertine rise and curl over a glazed base, meeting the ground on tapering stone piers. Timber-lined ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass and palm-lined terraces tie the building to the water.
A form drawn from the river, a limited palette of stone, timber and glass, and a public ground that works without a performance.
Manchester, United Kingdom · Civic and cultural
Interlocking stone volumes and a bold cantilevered gallery float above a glazed ground floor, in warm stone, bronze fins and glass. Broad stairs rise from the canal-side to the entrance and double as seating, so the building can be used before anyone steps inside.
Robust stone, bronze and glass that gain character with age, and a flexible plan that can change its programme without changing its structure.
Gairloch, Scotland, United Kingdom · Civic and cultural
Three connected volumes with asymmetrical pitched roofs echo the scale of the village. Local stone, weathered timber and dark metal roofing keep the palette quiet, and large panes of glass frame the loch and the mountains from the main hall.
Robust materials for a coastal climate and flexible rooms that can change use, so the centre can serve the village for generations.
Liverpool, United Kingdom · Civic and cultural
Interlocking limestone volumes and a large cantilever with a timber-batten underside shelter the entrance. Weathering steel, glass and planted terraces answer the red-brick warehouses around the dock without copying them.
Natural stone, timber and weathering steel that gain character with age, in a plan that can change its programme over time.
