The lecture will feature a number of recent UK projects both from his practice and from shortlisted projects for this year's RIBA Stirling Prize. These include the Peckham Library by Alsop and Stormer; the Millennium Wheel by Marks Barfield; the Jubilee Line stations by London Underground in conjunction with Wilkinson, Foster and Alsop; the offices for Lloyds Registry of Shipping; the Daiwa Bank; the Millennium Dome and the Montevetro housing scheme. A number of the projects have significant technical aspects in terms of urban design and sustainability.
