A lasting celebration – the twelve 1 metre square, waterjet-cut porcelain tiles combined with illuminated laminated glass and stainless steel creates major legacy for ExCeL London.

 

The graphic console at the foot of the 5 metre-high display factually describes ExCeL’s achievements in 2012 and features photos and hand-castings of London Mayor, Boris Johnson; Lord Coe, Chairman of the British Olympic Committee and the 4 Gold metal- winning GB athletes, Jade Jones, Nicola Adams, Luke Campbell and Anthony Joshua – all set a height that allows full public interaction, especially with ExCeL’s younger visitors.

As part of the interativity of the display, we included glassfibre handcastings from Lord Sebastian Coe, Boris Johnson and the four ExCeL Gold medal winners. Anthony Joshua (pictured), Jade Jones, Luke Campbell and Nicola Adams.

It is a great experience meeting the athletes and the personalities involved. Lord Coe, Chairman of the British Olympic Association and Boris Johnson, Mayor of London, were chiefly involved with securing the 2012 Games of Great Britain. ExCeL London are proud to be able to display these unique memorabilia.

Equinox Partners planned out each of the six castings and obtained lasercut lettering to go into the moulding process. Anthony Joshua’s hands, as you might expect from an 106 kg heavyweight boxer with size 16 feet, had to be accommodated in an extra-large plaque. His fingers are 2 cms longer than the average person’s!

A big Thank You to Steve and Barbara Cole from Articole Studios for their work on the hand-castings. Good Luck with the move to Shropshire!
