Director David Kohn and project architect Tom McGlynn discuss how they are converting a redundant print works on the fringes of the 2012 Olympics site into an arts centre

摘要

Tom McGlynn The project was originally conceived by Design for London to convert a former industrial building on the edge of the Olympics site into a local arts centre. We won the commission through a design competition in 2010 but there was a six-month delay while the project passed from DfL to the Olympic Park Legacy Company. Eventually, the building will be managed by Space Studios, a charity that provides affordable studio space for artists and we have been working closely with them on the design.
