Larry Oltmanns has achieved international acclaim for his work as an architect and master planner of large-scale mixed-use developments worldwide. Master plans designed by Mr Oltmanns include 25 mixed-use developments over $100 million, of which 12 have been completed and four are under construction. Six of these projects are currently under study at Vx3, the company he founded in 2007. Mr Oltmanns is also recognised as an international expert in the design of convention centres. His projects, which include eight facilities on four continents, are frequently cited as prototypes representing best practice by owners and operators. His competition-winning design for the new NATO Headquarters in Brussels, due to be completed in 2012, was chosen above designs submitted by 22 international firms.
VX3 Architects
Oltmanns founded his studio, Vx3, in April 2007. One of his firm’s first projects was the master plan for the $2 billion redevelopment of Euston Station in London. Current projects include three mixed-use developments in central London of over 3 million square feet, plus large-scale residential and commercial projects in Moscow, Warsaw, Calgary, and Dublin. He believes that architecture can only achieve greatness if it is financially successful and contributes to a better quality of urban life.
Before forming Vx3 Larry Oltmanns spent more than 30 years with SOM, initially in their Chicago office and later as Design Partner of SOM London. He led the design teams responsible for many landmarks including Rondo ONZ in Warsaw, 10 Exchange Square at Broadgate in London, the Convention and Exhibition Centre (COEX) at the Korea World Trade Centre and the multi award-winning Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. His competition-winning design for the new extension to the Melbourne Convention Centre will be the state-of-the-art when it opens in 2009 and has been awarded a 6 Star Green Star environmental rating by the Green Building Council of Australia, the first in the world for a convention centre.
Recognition
Projects under the direction of Larry Oltmanns have won numerous awards for design excellence, including awards from the American Institute of Architects, the Royal Australian Institute of Architects and the City of Seoul, Korea.
Oltmanns served on London’s International Convention Centre Commission in 2004/5. He is a long-standing member of the International Congress & Convention Association (ICCA).
