King's Cross Redevelopment
Related Argent has led the long-term transformation of King’s Cross, converting 67 acres of former industrial land into a major new central London district, now home to institutions including Central Saint Martins and Google.
Over this period, I supported Argent on a series of strategic advisory projects focused on placemaking, activation and long-term market and commercial options.
This included research and development work exploring the potential future use of Gas Holder No. 8 – the largest of the site’s restored industrial structures – assessing venue, cultural and event-led opportunities within the broader masterplan.
I also advised on the redevelopment of Coal Drops Yard, designed by Thomas Heatherwick, examining how the architecture and its infrastructure could be designed to support a range of activations beyond commercial tenants – from fashion shows, markets and large-scale activations and more. The aim was to ensure the building’s services and spatial configuration were aligned with longer-term ambitions to attract luxury, fashion and high-end brands before construction began.

Rolls-Royce Experience Centre Development
I was invited by 2Heads to lead early-stage concept development for potential experience environments for Rolls-Royce’s aerospace division.
The work explored how one of the world’s most advanced engineering organisations might translate complex technological innovation, industrial heritage and future-facing research into a coherent experiential setting.
Operating at concept level, the brief required alignment between corporate strategy, highly specialised customer audiences and long-term brand positioning within a rapidly evolving aerospace landscape.
The focus was on distilling precision, performance, innovation and engineering excellence into environments capable of communicating credibility at global scale.
Her Majesty The Queen's Platinum Jubilee
I served as Executive Producer for ‘A Gallop Through History’, working alongside Simon Brooks-Ward and HPower on a four-night production culminating in a live ITV broadcast watched by millions.
The event was attended by Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II – one of her final public appearances – placing the production at the centre of a moment of profound national significance.
With a cast of more than 1,000 performers, the show combined large-scale equestrian choreography, theatrical staging and live performance.
It was led by household names including Tom Cruise, Dame Helen Mirren, Damian Lewis, Omid Djalili, Adjoa Andoh, Gregory Porter, Martin Clunes, Keala Settle, Alan Titchmarsh and Katherine Jenkins.
This historic event required considerate creative development and seamless integration across broadcast, equestrian performance, royal protocol and live audience delivery within a highly visible national context.
