Meinhardt UK was appointed to deliver the project just six months before work was due on-site, having inherited an initial scheme from a previous design team.
Meinhardt delivered construction information for architecture in collaboration with experts from its structural and civil engineering and building services teams and was responsible for the complete supervision of works on site.
Bespoke design processes using parametric modelling and optimisation were developed to integrate the raw data from the Artist model and other parties into a combined 3D model and the analyses used for the coordination and design.
The Founders Memorial was designed by renowned Massachusetts-based artist, Ralph Helmick and delivered in collaboration with specialist artwork contractor, Stage One Creative Services and architect, Meticulous.
