Globally standardised data means that cities can now answer questions like, ‘How is my city doing compared to my peers?’ 

We visualised the smart city with Heathrow City; where systems are both physically and virtually connected. Called Heathrow 2030, the images explore how communities can explore how interconnection can be achieved to help cities operate more efficiently and with better outcomes. 

Produced in collaboration with architects Hawkins\Brown and &&& creative agency, the project speculates a city situated within a green belt in the green belt, which is home to a factory for living.

Zac Monro Architects really embraced the architectural technique of connecting inside and outside space with this 1960s conversion. The scheme is featured on Inside Out Homes on Channel 4 and and on the architects’ website here. It places the entrance to the side, making the previously underused front garden the entryway and a key feature of the project.

COHESION : THE BLUEPRINTS OF ERIC WONG is The Factory’s fourth exhibition. It is a celebration of architecture as illustration. Ten visionary drawings by Eric Wong tell the story of ‘Cohesion’, a future where a new capital city has been created for the United Kingdom. The project is a speculative driver and investigative model to cultivate accessibility, green sustainability and compassion.

Eric studied Art and Architecture at the Byam Shaw School of Art, Central Saint Martins. He completed his undergraduate degree at Cardiff University and later graduated from the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL. He was nominated for the RIBA President’s Silver Medal 2016 and is a recipient of the Sir Banister Fletcher Medal and the Fitzroy Robinson Drawing Prize.

Check out our Virtual City project created using the painting application, Tilt Brush. 

This was part of a wider project, which invited London-based architects from various studios to design in 3D within room-scale VR. 

Virtual City aims to push the boundaries of design by revealing how this pioneering technology can radically shift our perception of how to design, visualise and experience space. 

Hear more about the wonders of virtual reality from Factory Fifteen Director, Paul Nicholls, in the Architectural Review’s film, Disruptive Design.
