Grimshaw have been chosen as the concept designers to bring Heathrow’s vision for expansion to life, after a rigorous assessment from a shortlist of four of the UK’s top architects.

This follows on from the announcement of Arup, CH2M, MACE and Turner & Townsend as Programme Client Partners in March. The firm is tasked with ensuring the programme is delivered to the highest industry standards in planning, innovation and quality.

The concept designs push the boundary of what an airport could and should be, while simultaneously promoting a sustainable and affordable expansion.

The project would be a world-class sustainable airport, delivering innovation in passenger service and showcasing the best of British design.
