Benni Allan is the founder and director of London-based studio EBBA.

Since establishing his practice in 2016, Allan has overseen a diverse mix of projects for local London Councils and institutions including the Tate Modern and the V&A.

The studio focuses on a hands-on approach, with recent works including a glowing canopy for Houghton Festival, a coffee shop tucked within London's busy Holborn tube station, and a minimalist raw-basalt home extension.

Allan is also known for making objects and furniture, with notable collections including a series of sculptural, curved furniture pieces made from solid oak.
