The renovation of Exhibition Road, London has created a world class streetscape to house and frame London’s most culturally significant destination. Exhibition Rd utilises the urban design concept ‘shared space’ which removes the traditional segregation of motor vehicles, pedestrians and other road users. The roads design is that of a single surface, removing kerbs to give pedestrians maximum space while still allowing motor traffic. Exhibition Road is the most ambitious single surface scheme in the UK, with the street attracting 11.5 million visitors a year while also seeing traffic of 600-700 cars per hour. The project was completed before the 2012 London Olympics so as to showcase the beauty of the host nation.
Barchip macro-synthetic fibre was used to reinforce this ambitious project as BarChip is able to provide excellent impact and abrasion resistance to the concrete as well as providing structural capacity across small service channels. Macro-synthetic fibres were utilised to make the handling of the concrete easier by eliminating puncture injuries. Furthermore, macro-synthetic fibres provide a more environmentally friendly option than any other steel solutions.

Prague's Nam Republiky square. The square has been newly renovated and it's a beautiful example of how trams, buses, bikes and pedestrians can get along together in a shared space.
"Shared Space" is a tool that allows scenographers to create virtual sound spheres in any space in a museum. This new experience offers the public the possibility to merge more deeply with works of art. While wearing headphones, the visitor is at the center of every sound. Depending on their location in the museum, the visitor can focus on a specific sound, story, or sound texture. In this way, senses other than sight, may be aroused and stimulated.
