Blohm + Voss Palladium: Organic Chemistry
Chemistry between designer and client is vital for a successful outcome. Michael Leach and Mark Smith, partners at Hampshire-based Michael Leach Design (MLD), clearly had a dynamic interaction with the owner of the 312-foot Palladium. Leach and Smith, who studied industrial/transportation design a year apart at the same college, complement each other perfectly and found common ground with the owner.
