In the year of Euro 2020, we kicked off the new programme of SDS seminars with a talk by Simon Borg on the brief, challenges and inspiration behind Populous Activate‘s commission for the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Simon examined how the practice’s cross-disciplinary design approach informed the development of authentic and long-lasting experiential spaces at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium London.
