Capturing a landmark
80 Strand isn’t just a building—it’s a piece of London’s history. Wind & Foster partnered with HDR to document and promote its transformation, to showcase just how this Grade II-listed Art Deco landmark was reimagined for the future.
More than aesthetics
This was more than a design showcase; we created insight-driven visuals that told the story of HDR’s innovations: flexible workspaces, sustainable energy systems, and cutting-edge smart infrastructure. We revealed how HDR balances functionality with beauty in workspaces designed for modern needs.
Bringing architecture to life
Through time-lapse, cinemagraphs, and dynamic sequences, we created a visual narrative that reflected the flow of 80 Strand—from the glow of sunrise over the Thames to the seamless integration of exposed mechanical and electrical systems.
Precision meets storytelling
Every frame was designed with intent. Whether focusing on the UK’s largest clock face or the intricate design details within HDR’s workspace, we combined technical precision with creative storytelling—showing not just what was built, but why it matters.
A vision for the future
This project wasn’t just about documenting a renovation. It was about positioning HDR as leaders in adaptable, sustainable design. Wind & Foster delivered a suite of visuals that continue to tell HDR’s story—powerful content for clients, partners, and the future of architectural storytelling.
