The Royal Festival Hive Project
Design by Paul Kelly
Mikey Tomkins examines the hive
The Royal Festival Hive is situated on the Roof of the Royal Festival Hall, South Bank, London. It is the brain child of Andrew Hinton and Mikey Tomkins. The Hive is looked well looked after by John Chapple, of the London Beekeepers association.
The Royal Hive is an accurate scale model of the Hall, on which it sits, showing that architecture even in its model form can be productive. Andrew keeps a blog at www.royalfestivalhive.typepad.com/
