"It was with great trepidation and excitement that we embarked on the task of designing a new media centre as there is so much that is eternal and sacred at Lord's. Our objective was to respect and savour the essential nature of Lord's at the same time as creating a building that will come to symbolise the most sophisticated and beautiful media centre in the world."
