Five design teams have been shortlisted to masterplan a huge £8bn regeneration project in south-east London. They include leading practices such as Alison Brooks, Mikhail Riches and Shard architect William Matthews as well as emerging names including Jas Bhalla Architects and Madeleine Kessler, co-curator of the British Pavilion at the delayed Venice Biennale. The 250-acre scheme, known as Thamesmead Waterfront, is set to provide at least 11,500 new homes plus commercial and leisure space across more than a mile of undeveloped river frontage at the sprawling estate made famous by the film A Clockwork Orange.
