The project is being drawn up by Herzog and de Meuron, the Swiss architects who transformed the former Bankside power station, which closed in 1981 and lay derelict for more than a decade until work began on creating Tate Modern, which opened in 2000.
In the case study for Riverbed, Tate expressed relief that the staff at Paul Hastings has not had to slow down its work since the law firm began making the switch in technology.
