Gensler - The Francis Crick Institute
Project Description:
Designed by Gensler, this state-of-the-art research facility blends functionality with contemporary elegance. A neutral base palette is accented with bold colours, biophilic elements, and sustainable materials like perforated timber and acoustic walls, creating a space that feels both modern and inviting. Thoughtful lighting and environmental graphics enhance the dynamic yet refined atmosphere, making this a hub for collaboration and innovation in London’s life sciences sector.
The Shoot:
Shooting with Gensler is always a great experience, and this project was a fantastic way to start the year. With no natural light, lighting was the biggest challenge, so I used flash layers to ensure every design detail was captured as intended.
In this one-day shoot, we created 10 final images, balancing wide hero shots with detailed compositions. We also staged people within the space to add scale and showcase human interaction. Post-production played a crucial role in refining light and colour balance, removing distractions, and ensuring a polished, high-end finish. The result was a set of images the team was thrilled with, and once published, the project gained strong recognition.
