MATT Architecture

It dares to detail unlike so much of the bland bilge that gets thrown up.

Amazingly, this very fine bit of street in South London is less that 10 years’ old.

@Cobylefko Top right is one of ours - Thanks Coby!

A very Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating out there! This year, I'm grateful for all of you, and the many places that give me optimism for the future of our built environment! In this spirit, below are some of my favorite recent buildings and projects!

MAYBE ORNAMENT IS CRIME.

Having spent the last 6 years working on this building, this is without doubt the most important poll on Twitter this week.

So the question is - do we change logo?

To mark yesterday’s return of Nasa’s epic Artemis test flight around the moon we’ve mocked up our logo using the classic NASA ‘worm’ font:

Exciting Film Premiere activity in Leicester Square this morning. Quite an unexpected prop for the ‘League of Super Pets’ though. …Wait what? There’s a new Top Gun movie?!? Maverick?!?

@mark_itecture I’d second the Villa Necchi - really worthwhile.

bdonline.co.uk/news/queensway… We designed these for London - but the new render definitely looks sunnier now they're being described as 'Parisian-style'. I wonder if they'd look a little greyer and be described as 'London-style' if we proposed them for Paris?

@petresposito Dave Gilmour and Polly Samson - you knew right?

@SohoDairy Good luck. I’m pretty sure it’s that location from the decor. The office may be shut today but there’s also some flats there - and The Box may be able to help with access too.

@MATT_architect That would make sense, almost the right number in the wrong street. Will go knock. Thanks

Anyone recognise this office please? We have a parcel missing and (apparently) this is it… out there… somewhere…

This picture from 2006 on BBC News today. Is Putin really small? Or was he just very young back then?

Queues deep in to Leicester Square for Burger King’s ‘NEW 100% MEAT FREE!’ restaurant below our studio. Congratulations! Come try the Katsu Vegan Royale …and head upstairs for a side order of architecture #BurgerKing #Leicestersquare

Just won a planning appeal for this in Westminster. Lovely model by LL&Co don’t you think? instagram.com/p/CY8vv0esQdj/…

Richard Rogers was absolutely inspirational - so sad to see him go! When I left architecture school the saying was that “You could be fostered by Rogers’ or rogered by Foster’s”. I’m an idiot so obvs’ went for the latter…

@marjouotila1 @RetrofitAwards Thanks Marjo - much appreciated!

No nyt on oikea suunta ennen-jälkeen kuvilla! This is how before (ennen) and after (jälkeen) should look like! Great work @MATT_architect ! @RetrofitAwards #architecture #retrofit
