London Aquatics Centre

Designed as a wave on its riverside site, the centre hosted the 2012 Olympic aquatics events. Now welcoming a million visitors a year and teaching almost 4,000 children to swim each week.

I shot the building almost ten years after opening, and it retains its use, quality, and feeling like an epic venue for London.
