John McAslan + Partners Work People Studio Gallery News Msheireb Museums Doha, Qatar. 2016 Commercial Culture John McAslan + Partners worked with Buro Happold and exhibition designers Ralph Appelbaum to transform four historic courtyard houses in Doha dating back to the early 20th century into the Msheireb Museums. With a mixture of restoration, remodelling, extension, and new state-of-the-art environmental systems and engrossing museological narratives, the buildings remain essentially traditional in form and materials but are of international museum standard. Each Museum explains the history of a key aspect of Qatar’s early and contemporary development: the slave trade; the discovery of oil; traditional domestic life; and the transformation of Doha. Together, the Museums provide important insights into the history and bold aspirations of this peninsular nation.

John McAslan + Partners Work People Studio Gallery News Olympic Energy Centres London, UK. 2012 Infrastructure John McAslan + Partners designed these two technically advanced, environmentally innovative Energy Centres for the 2012 London Olympic Games site to supply power for all the Olympic stadia and associated facilities. In Olympic Legacy mode the Centres continue to supply electricity to local communities, and the structures are landmarks at the eastern and western boundaries of a huge tranche of East London that is being regenerated. The Energy Centres add to the area’s architectural character, with a deliberately tough and industrial design inspired by London’s great historic power stations. Enveloped in Corten steel, the distinctive buildings make a visually robust contribution to the developing townscape and urban character of the adjoining Lea Valley. - 'The new Energy Centres for the 2012 London Olympics champion power generation as an integral presence in two East London communities – vital pieces of utilities infrastructure for the Olympic and Paralympic Games and the ensuing Legacy. The practice’s response is distinctive in both form and function – a strong 21st-century industrial aesthetic.'
