STREET CREATURES

The Reading Pod is inspired by nature; its spiky conker-like exterior contains a cosy reading space, large enough to hold two people, and it mimics a small, free-standing tree house.

Initially designed for a park the pod would sit comfortably in any landscape, its bold, exploding form would make it a fun addition to the streetscape.

Consultation is a large part of successful architecture and urban design and we prioritise it. ‘Wild’ ideas and aspirations are often daunting for some stakeholders, yet we believe that eliciting aspirations is a good place to begin any project.

A car park with the aLL Design treatment.

A brief to conceal its purpose whilst contributing to the aesthetic character of the Wembley master plan.

We responded with a cladding system. Formed using aluminium fins in red, black, white and chrome which, when placed vertically and seemingly at random, form a dynamic façade that changes as you traverse the building and differs from daytime to night. The panels were designed to be cut from a standard sheet of recycled aluminium with minimal waste during construction.

We're proud to continue a legacy of artistic expression. We paint to free our minds of preconceptions of what a project should be and embrace what it could be.

And, we do it for the love of just doing it.

We have been reflecting on the legacy of our co-founder, the late Professor Will Alsop. AD's recent issue celebrated the life and work of Will through a series of contributions from family, friends and colleagues - including his Co-Founder Marcos who has shared his thoughts on the legacy of aLL Design.⁠
⁠
Will was one of architecture’s true creative thinkers, who loved to share his ideas about how to make life better with students and colleagues. Our name, aLL Design, reflects his all-encompassing ethos for designing anything, from a teaspoon to a city. ⁠
