• Frank Gehry and Gordan Ramsey to star in new film about Battersea Power Station transformation

    Independent UK production company Chief has completed The Masterplan, a new documentary exploring the architectural and cultural transformation of Battersea Power Station in London. After decades of disuse, areas of the station were repurposed by WilkinsonEyre for housing and retail through a £9 billionoverhaul completed in 2022, with Foster + Partners designing a new Apple Store for the station in 2023.
    Directed by Chief’s Nate Camponi and commissioned by Stripe Communications and the Battersea Power Station Development Group, the new film presents an in-depth account of the power station’s history, from its origins as an industrial landmark to its revival as a mixed-use cultural destination. The film uses a combination of historical narrative, visual storytelling, and personal reflections to document the complex process of redeveloping the site and its evolving relationship with the city.

  • WilkinsonEyre and Prague practice win Czech stadium contest

    The duo will create a ball sports arena for local teams and the wider community, providing a new public square and gateway to an exhibition park in České Budějovice, a city 120km south of Prague.
    Inspired by the Möbius strip – a continuous surface with only one side and one edge – the winning design aims to reflect ‘energy, unity, and perpetual motion’ and serve as a catalyst for positive transformation in České Budějovice.
    WilkinsonEyre board director Sam Wright said: ‘We are thrilled to have been selected for this exciting project, which presents a unique opportunity to build on our design expertise and passion for sports architecture.Advertisement

    ‘We look forward to collaborating with our partners to create a world-class venue that inspires both athletes and spectators alike.’
    Boele founding director Petr Suma, who has worked at both WilkinsonEyre and London-based William Matthews Architects, said: ‘By revitalising and redefining the southern entrance to the České Budějovice Exhibition Grounds, this project creates a catalyst for new development on the left bank of České Budějovice.’
    Though the arena is primarily for volleyball, it will also host a range of ball sports, including handball, floorball, basketball and futsal, as well as concerts and conferences.
    The winning proposal was selected unanimously from 29 entries, and construction is expected to begin next year.
    České Budějovice is a major industrial centre with around 96,000 residents. Local landmarks include the Budweiser Budvar Brewery, the Baroque-style Museum of South Bohemia and the Neo-Gothic Church of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.Advertisement

    A separate contest to remasterplan České Budějovice was launched early last year.
