Description

Archello connects with John McAslan, Founder, and Colin Bennie, Director, at John McAslan + Partners. For over 30 years, this practice has been shaping the built environment on a global scale, with a reputation for blending heritage preservation with contemporary design.

From revitalizing King's Cross Station in London to reimagining urban transit centers like the Belfast Transport Hub, the practice’s work emphasizes the balance between historical context and modern innovation. McAslan, originally from Scotland, honed his architectural vision under the mentorship of Richard Rogers before founding his own practice in London. And Bennie brings expertise in complex infrastructure projects.

Listen as the two describe their personal journeys, and discuss how the firm’s transport hub projects respond to the cultural and social contexts of the cities they serve.
