We have contributed to a new installation outside St Paul’s Cathedral in London. We collaborated on the design of an information plinth which has been installed as part of From the Thames to Eternity. Commissioned by the City of London Corporation, the project stems from the construction of the Thames Tideway Tunnel which saw sections of the Victoria Embankment river wall removed for a new 25km super sewer. As a result, the project investigates reuse, material lifespan and cultural heritage by exploring how large granite stone extracted from the wall can be re-used and repurposed. The project consists of a 3D-printed plinth information board fabricated from crushed granite stone leftover from the production of a series of new public benches outside the cathedral. The plinth was designed by OZRUH and 3D printed by Pietro Odaglia (Digital Building Technologies, ETH Zürich ), with structural engineering completed by formDP. The team previously collaborated on last year’s ANTI-RUIN pavilion at the Architecture Venice Biennale 2025.

From the Thames to Eternity demonstrates the potential of combining digital fabrication technologies with circular material practices – transforming waste into a valuable architectural element. At a time when resource efficiency and environmental responsibility are increasingly critical, the project highlights the importance of recycling and reusing natural materials through innovative design and advanced manufacturing processes. It serves as a compelling example of how technological innovation can support more sustainable and regenerative approaches to construction and public space design.
