Thomas Heatherwick
Thomas Alexander Heatherwick, CBE, RDI (born 17 February 1970) is an English designer and the founder of London-based design practice Heatherwick Studio. Since the late 1990s Heatherwick has emerged as one of Britain’s most gifted and imaginative designers. His innovative approach to design has earned him a reputation as an "ideas engine".〔Daily Telegraph, 25 February 2012〕
Since 2010 Heatherwick has exhibited projects connected to national or local identity. These include the Olympic Cauldron, the New Routemaster bus, the first new double decker bus commissioned for London in 50 years, and the UK pavilion at Expo 2010.〔Icon Magazine, July 2012〕 Other notable works include the Garden Bridge, the renovation of Pacific Place, and a plan for a biomass power station in BEI-Teesside.
Heatherwick works with a team of over 150 architects, designers and makers from a combined studio and workshop in King’s Cross, London.
==Education==
Heatherwick was born in London and studied three-dimensional design at Manchester Polytechnic and at the Royal College of Art, winning several prizes. Whilst Heatherwick was at the RCA he met renowned designer Terence Conran. Conran became a mentor to Heatherwick after seeing his plan for a gazebo made of two, 6 m high curved stacks of birch plywood and made its construction possible by inviting Heatherwick to work at his country home. Conran continued to mentor Heatherwick and later described him as "the Leonardo da Vinci of our times".〔
