Designed by a Czech called Jan Kaplický with his then suppose Amanda Levete. He died a few years ago. Thet are the same team, Future Systems, who designed the media centre at Lord's which won the Stirling Prize. I worked with her a bit when we came to refurbish the media centre, she was very creative but didn't really understand that as well as looking good the building also had to be fit for purpose. She couldn't understand why it was a problem that the journos sitting on the back row couldn't actually see the cricket if we rolled down the fancy blinds she'd designed.
