Mayhew Theater in London, England by Gilbert-Ash

Wednesday, March 18th, 2020

Article source: Gilbert-Ash

In March 2019, Prince William’s presence at The Mayhew Theater in London was captured by media outlets throughout the world. He was speaking to an audience celebrating the opening of the visually stunning Mayhew Theater in London, a new teaching and presentation space built in the courtyard of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. While many eyes and ears were listening to the Prince’s keynote, keen AEC observers were taking note of the visually stunning theater.

Built by contractor Gilbert-Ash, the glass, steel and wood building has a complex design. Along with an impressive custom glazed oval walling system, one of the most notable design elements in the superstructure is its cantilevered hyperbolic paraboloid top ring beam with a zinc roof. It’s often referred to as “The Pringle” (potato chip) due to its shape. To put that highly geometric language in context, it essentially means that the Mayhew Theater was a complicated structure to build.
