EBBA has worked with Concéntrico and Instituto Cervantes London on a installation for London Design Festival

The studio has presented a prototype column developed as part of an ongoing research project based on a series of low-carbon strategies, aiming to test ways of reducing cement and steel in construction.

On show in London till December.

Thank you to everyone who can to hear the Talk alongside Javier Peña Ibáñez

EBBA have delivered the design for the latest exhibition at All Projects

Coinciding with London Design Festival the exhibition has been put together as an assemblage of objects that help to frame the works, made of discarded material repurposed from a live project in the studio.

11 (artists, designers and architects) have responded to a brief, inspired by a 1961 book titled ‘Anthology of Chance Operations’.

On View: 10–24 September, 2026

Eclipse Installation, Draaimolen 2026

Still enjoying the aftermath of last weekend. Thank you for all the messages about this piece!

The installation was designed as a moment of pause at Draaimolen Festival, titled Eclipse. An eclipse is a moment of interruption and for a few minutes light falls, temperatures drop, and everyone stops to look at the same thing. This is the closest we still come to the rituals that
once gathered people around the sun.

The intervention restages that pause in a forest clearing. A draped fabric canopy holds the space, an invitation to lie back and rest. The platform beneath carries low-frequency energy which is felt through the body rather than heard.
Above, a halo of light flickers and responds in rhythm with the vibrations below: radiance
passing behind shadow. The installation is about asking of visitors to stop and watch the light
change together, and to feel a deeper connection with the forest and our place in the world.

Thank you to the hard work from all involved: Eliza, Rikard, Defne, Pablo, Paul, Ali, Fabin

Night shots of Eclipse at DRAAIMOLEN

The lighting reflects the energy and resonance from the earth and surroundings, as a way to connect with the site. Imagined as a place to contemplate and come together around a un-natural event.

EBBA was selected as one of a select visual artists to develop a piece for the festival.

Thank you again to the incredible team who made this happen!

EBBA is developing a series of low-carbon strategies that test ways of reducing cement and steel in construction. For this years London Design Festival we are working with Instituto Cervantes London and Concéntrico on a new installation.

The studio will present a prototype column developed as part of an ongoing research project, one that will culminate in the design of an outdoor classroom and chicken coop in Spain. Shown at full scale, the prototype is a working fragment of a building that does not yet exist, a way of testing materials, assembly and structure before the wider project takes shape.

The research is an exploration of columns, compression and void, where architecture emerges through the tension between structural mass and the spaces it encloses. Rather than reading as singular objects, the columns are understood as accumulations of stacked elements, compressed into dense vertical forms that express both weight and assembly. Each column carries the evidence of how it was made, proposing a way of building in which structure, material and method are held in a single gesture.

A talk presented by the studio alongside Javier Peña Ibáñez will be held at the Cervantes Institute in London on Monday 14th September 630PM - tickets available via Eventbrite link in bio.

Film of Pulse Installation, Houghton (re-edit)

Coinciding with the second instal of Pulse at this month we are sharing an updated film that captures the atmosphere of the piece. Pulse is a site specific work that helps create a closer connection with the forest environment. We are excited to see this up for a Gold award by (more via link in bio).

Thank you to the organisers and everyone involved in the delivery of the project, as well as all the people that have messaged about it!!

Plug in and listen to the film, produced from sounds captured from the trees on site at Houghton.

Happy to share a few more shots from our recently completed interior featured on Dezeen

EBBA are interested in creating spaces that feel calm yet also provide a sense of delight. A lot of our work is about using natural materials and developing palettes that are comforting on the eye and the body, sometimes unnoticed initially. Here the terracotta tones, the warm oak combined with a darker walnut colour downstairs, allows for a contrast of light and shade, which emphasises the tonality that we experienced during our research visits to Istanbul.

There’s is a subtle contrast between the two floors that is both in terms of form and materiality. The ground floor is more structured yet also playful, such as the column arrangement with incidental places to sit and the large oak bar that zig-zags across the space. A communal table in the centre negotiates these geometries and helps demarcate the space.

The seating area downstairs has soft curves and low seating that allows for a place to work and relax, including a niche formed in a continuous oak panelling and oculus above (that will no doubt become a favourite seat in the house).

Thank you again to all those involved and CUP OF JOY for the support throughout!

New Interior in Marylebone, London.

A clay plaster is used across most of the surfaces on the ground floor and down the stairwell. Large slabs of Portland stone are inlaid into the walls, and rendered over with the clay to give a harmonious quality. The stone has a block base, with it breaking up into larger and further smaller pieces as it rises to give the space a sense of grounding while also being about translate the textures of Istanbul.

A datum runs continuously around the interior, anchoring guests within the room and giving the heavy walls a legible order. Between these sculptural elements, insertions of timber provide seating, benches, retail displays, a feature water point and intimate nooks. The practice of carving into the thick walls gave the opportunity to place moments to sit within them.

A large oak bar cuts diagonally across the ground floor, its angle echoed in the geometry of surrounding furniture pieces, giving the space a quiet internal coherence. Overhead, a panelled ceiling of timber and opaque glass distributes light evenly across the room, avoiding the harsh directionality of conventional hospitality lighting. The glow it produces is deliberately about providing an ambient quality of light.

Our Pulse Lights (part of EBBA OBJRCTS) feature in the stairwell, picking up on the lantern-like lighting across the interiors.

We have completed a new coffee house and eatery in central London.

The design is organised around a series of heavy sculpted wall elements that create a sense of being in a courtyard. The concept was to create an interior that spoke to the character of Istanbul, where the CUP OF JOY originates. From the very beginning the concept started with materials, and an intent to create something that could translate a feeling of being somewhere else. With it being the brand’s first store in the UK, we intended to draw on the history of that city and the culture of drinking coffee, while also connecting to the ethos of a material-led client. 

Clay rendered over stone give the walls a harmonious yet monolithic quality, providing the sense of enclosure close to the feeling of being in a courtyard space. Each of the walls were inset with hand-selected stones, positioned by the studio on site before being drawn back into the render surface by the clay. The result reads as a series of surfaces that appear to have been there for years.

Clay was chosen for its innate capacity to absorb and soften: acoustically and visually, helping to do the work of calming the space. The interior references the textures and tones found during our research trips, and the richness of the history captured in the city walls.

We are hugely grateful to the clients, makers and EBBA team for the work in developing this ambitious project.
