Thomas Heatherwick is one of the UK’s most prolific designers, whose varied work over two decades is characterised by its originality, inventiveness and humanity.
Defying conventional classifications, Thomas founded his studio in 1994 to bring together architecture, urban planning, product design and interiors into a single creative workspace. Working across multiple scales, locations and typologies, Heatherwick Studio has developed into a team of 200 makers and inventors with no signature style. Lead by human experience rather than any fixed dogma, the studio creates emotionally compelling places and objects with the smallest possible climate shadow.
From their base in London, the studio team is currently working on over 30 projects in ten countries, including Toranomon-Azabudai, a six-hectare mixed-use development in the centre of Tokyo, the new headquarters for Google in London (in collaboration with Bjarke Ingels Group) and Airo, an electric car that cleans the air as it drives.
The studio has also recently completed Bay View, Google’s first ground-up campus and Little Island, a park and performance space on the Hudson River in New York as well as the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa in Cape Town; and Coal Drops Yard, a major new retail district in King’s Cross, London. Thomas’ forthcoming book, Humanise, will be published by Penguin in 2023.
Anya Hindmarch founded her business in London in 1987 and it has since grown into a global brand. Today, it is as known for its luxury, organisation-obsessed accessories as it is for its groundbreaking work in sustainability and its playful experiential retail concepts.
Creativity, modern craftsmanship and personalisation sit at the heart of everything Anya Hindmarch does. The brand pioneered the modern obsession with personalisation starting in 2001 with the launch of a bag featuring customers’ photographs. Be A Bag was revived and re-imagined in 2021 – a time when cherishing special moments felt more important than ever. At the Bespoke store in London, customers can have drawings or messages in their own handwriting embossed by in-store craftsmen. From adding initials to a weekend bag to an embroidered monogram on a clutch, countless pieces can be personalised. All of this is part of an ongoing commitment to reconnect the craftsman and the customer: each bespoke piece is – as Anya says – about ‘having your name on something, rather than mine’.
A passionate advocate of British design and arts, Anya is an Emeritus trustee of both the Royal Academy of Arts and the Design Museum and a trustee of The Tate and The Royal Marsden. In 2017, Anya Hindmarch was awarded a CBE in recognition for her contribution to the British fashion industry and has received several notable industry awards including a British Fashion Award. In 2021, Anya published her first book, If In Doubt Wash Your Hair.
