I worked on all stages of the Velodrome, from the architectural competition in 2007 to completion in 2011. My main focus was on the design of the seating bowl where I developed skills in parametric modelling. I also worked on the precast concrete, architectural metalwork and the wider Velopark including a mountain bike bridge.

The Velodrome won several awards including AJ100 Building of the Year Award and the People’s Choice at the 20122 Stirling Prize.
