Lifschutz Davidson Sandilands (LDS) has won the Illuminated River design competition for a 拢20m light installation covering all 17 central London bridges.

The scheme, a collaboration with US light artist Leo Villareal, defeated rival bids led by David Adjaye, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Sam Jacob Studio, Lyon-based Les 脡clairagistes Associ茅s and Amanda Levete (AL_A), which received an honourable mention.

Called Current, the LDS team will deliver a slowly moving and colour-changing lighting scheme synchronised across all the bridges.

Hannah Rothschild, chair of the Illuminated River Foundation, said the project would 鈥渢ransform鈥� the Thames after dark.

鈥淎t night, the river becomes a ribbon of darkness, a place that few enjoy and at odds with the ambition to make London a 24-hour city,鈥� she said.

鈥淭his project will bring light, energy, beauty and recreation to the river and at the flick of a switch transform the city at night.鈥�

Of the winning scheme, she said: 鈥淭heir scheme is beautiful, ambitious and realisable but always considerate to the environment, lighting levels and energy conservation. The jury is convinced that the winning team will transform the centre of London while remaining true to the spirit and integrity of the Thames and its communities.鈥�

She said the architect鈥檚 experience of building bridges had counted, with the Hungerford footbridges, which link the South Bank with Charing Cross station, designed by LDS.

According to the foundation, the cost of implementing the winning scheme will be met by 鈥減rivate and philanthropic sources鈥� rather than the public purse.

London mayor Sadiq Khan said: 鈥榃e saw an incredible response to this fascinating competition, showing that London continues to inspire creatives from around the globe, and is open to all.鈥�

The competition was organised by Malcolm Reading Consultants.
