Inspired by creating clear lines of communication between architect, design and the public, ‘Five by Five’ refers to a signal that has excellent strength and perfect clarity – the most understandable signal possible.
It features drawings and models of recent works grouped according to five principles: evolution and revolution, natural consequences, 5-D geometry, tuning in and integration.

The Hurlingham Club Outdoor Pool – 30 Jun 2012
RIBA Awards 2012 Winner
The Outdoor Pool was commissioned to replace a pool complex started 80 years ago, now dilapidated but still much-loved by its members.
The new changing room building is larger than the original and adopts an elongated tear shape; it has long horizontal proportions, blue painted clap-board walls with white doors and pool accessories such as the large clock and life-saving rings.
This reinterpretation of a traditional lido building is however given additional interest by the new roof which is made up of a series of elegant metal clad vaults which float at a constant height above clerestorey glazing.
