Eyrise liquid crystal glass installed for solar shading in Victorian rooflights at BAFTA’s 195 Piccadilly headquarters.
The installation of 82 dynamic liquid crystal windows to glaze two restored Victorian rooflights has been completed, as refurbishment progresses at the 195 Piccadilly headquarters of the British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA).
By improving facilities and doubling the building’s capacity, BAFTA will be able to dramatically increase its charitable programme. A world-leading independent arts charity, BAFTA works to support and promote the next generation of talent and break down barriers that make it hard for talented individuals to build careers in the creative industries.

Lambeth Palace’s Wright & Wright-designed £23.5 million national library and archive for the Church of England has long been anticipated. Now due to open formally on a yet-to-be-announced date later this year, it was one of the AJ’s top 5 buildings to look out for in 2020. This is a flagship project for a practice which excels at institutional architecture and, in terms of time and budget, it is certainly a plum commission.
