Our Pudding Mill Lane pumping station features in this months RIBA Journal – in an issue entitled: Power and Production – Architects and Infrastructure.
Quotes from In the Pink article by Eleanor Young:
“The form has great simplicity and a hunkered down sense of power.”
“Lyalls design has most in common with Rogers’ (LDDC pumping station): the circular plan and intense colour. But Pudding Mill Pumping Station is a much more polite and even refined building with its cloak of concrete.”

The Aquatic Centre from the bus!
JLA were very pleased to be taken on a guided tour of the Olympic Park the other day – as a thank-you for our work t on the Olympic project to date. Here are a few of our photos from what was a really interesting trip. The Velodrome was a real stand out building, while the Aquatic centre was always going to be great to see close-up. We also heard a fascinating talk from the head architect at Lend Lease about the Olympic Village – the photos and our initial impression don’t really do it justice; the plans and particularly section look like they will create a really interesting series of places – with generous floor to ceiling heights, winter gardens and private garden spaces. It was a really interesting afternoon!
And although our Pumping Station was probably not most people’s highlight of the tour…our guide – The ODAs head of design Jerome Frost – did give some very nice words as we drove past!
