Tribute to Sir Nicholas Grimshaw

Designed by the late Sir Nicholas Grimshaw, the Eden Project’s breath-taking geodesic domes are home to an awe inspiring global garden that nearly 25 million people have visited - his legacy is clear: the Eden Project is recognised globally as one of the most iconic structures of the 21st Century.

All at the Eden Project mourn his passing, and celebrate his genius. He understood the power to empower people to embrace ideas gifted to us by nature. His creative vision for Eden was inspired by a handful of soap bubbles as biomes, to inspire the team to create the most elegant solution to address design challenges. They fit so well in the landscape that it is sometimes hard to know where landscape stops and buildings start. 

In homage to Sir Nicholas Grimshaw we acknowledge and celebrate his legacy, without him there would be no Eden Project domes. 

As we plan for our 25th Anniversary celebrations next year, we will do so with Sir Nicolas at the heart of the Eden Project as we remind people of our origin story. 

The Eden Project has become a beacon of hope and positivity and Sir Nicolas Grimshaw will live on in the very DNA, and breathe life into a vision of a new Eden Project in Morecambe yet to come.
