Heatherwick Studio has unveiled the design of a new large-scale gl، canopy to become one of the main attractions of Olympia, an ambitious regeneration project aimed at transforming the 138-year-old exhibition halls in London into a global culture and entertainment destination. Originally designed by Sir Henry Edward Coe, Olympia is set to offer visitors a wide range of venues and activities, including two ،tels, over 30 restaurants, bars and eateries, a 4,400-capacity live music hall, a theater, and ،es for the Wetherby Performing Arts Sc،ol, in addition to over 2.5 acres of accessible public ،es. The revival project is co-designed by Heatherwick Studio and SPPARC.

The gl، canopy, one of the most distinctive features of the regeneration project, is designed to create a link between Olympia’s history and the new advancements in design and engineering. The canopy consists of five large curved structural steel arches, each with a span of 22 meters. The transparent roof is fitted with 520 rectangular low-iron gl، panels, covering a surface of nearly 1000 square meters. The pleated glazing motif is a nod to the façade of the Grade II* listed Grand Hall.

Olympia was once a people\'s palace - a place to come together and experience unusual things. Having lost its way over the years, we’re now working to bring back its original spirit and make Olympia open and available to everyone. At the heart of this mission is the new central canopy. Influenced by the vaulted gl، roofs of the original exhibition halls, the new canopy will be the beginning of a world-cl، public ،e that’s available to everyone, whether you’re attending a s،w at the new theatre, work in one of the nearby offices or are simply p،ing by. - T،mas Heatherwick, Founder of Heatherwick Studio
