After more than two decades of planning and development, the design for London's Tottenham Court Road tube station by Hawkins\Brown has been revealed. Part of the Crossrail project and described as a "dream project" for the firm, the £375m upgrade will see a complete overhaul of the station's interior and accessibility points.
In this video from Crane.tv, Roger Hawkins explains Hawkins\Brown's collaborative design approach, identifying the project as an "opportunity to rework the space...as a plaza, as a public space, but fundamentally [as] an access site." Hawkins\Brown has since been commissioned to upgrade the Liverpool Street and Bond Street tube stations.
