Five Teams Shortlisted for Latest LSE Development

The project to revitalise 61A Aldwych Crescent for teaching and research will help consolidate the university’s London campus.

Alison Brooks Architects are delighted to be collaborating with Feix&Merlin Architects in this competition for The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE).

Five design teams are in the running for the LSE competition to overhaul an Edwardian office building in Holborn, central London. Located on the corner of Aldwych and Kingsway, the 110-year-old block once hosted the Air Ministry before becoming home to television stations (when it was known as Television House) and later ExxonMobil.

We are happy to be shortlisted alongside Allies and Morrison, STUDIOS Architecture with Ayre Chamberlain Gaunt Ltd, Ennead Architects with 10 Design, and 3XN/GXN with Adamson Associates Architects – good luck to all.
