Inspiring Vision: Bombay Sapphire Distillery

“Design is the visible soul of intention.”

Look closely. This isn’t just a greenhouse, it’s a living metaphor. This stunning image comes from the Bombay Sapphire Distillery, where architect Thomas Heatherwick designed these botanical glasshouses as a celebration of transparency, creativity, and integration. It’s a place where nature, industry, and artistry are not separated but intertwined. What strikes me most is how this space invites flow. The curves aren’t just aesthetic; they evoke movement, curiosity, and breath. It serves as a reminder that our environment shapes our thinking. When we create spaces – literal or metaphorical – that invite life in, we cultivate possibility. Just like these glasshouses, our leadership can be transparent and artful. We can design our lives to hold both structure and soul.
