Architect Ken Yeang is in talks with developer St Modwen to design two 40-storey towers on the site of the Elephant & Castle shopping centre in south London. The developer, which is seeking a signature architect to head at least ￡300m of work on the site, recently met Yeang in Kuwait to discuss reprising his celebrated "ecotower" design for the site. The 35-storey tower, which drew on Yeang's experience in designing ecologically sustainable skyscrapers, was one of the keynote buildings of Norman Foster's stalled masterplan for the site two years ago.
