The success of this project has resulted in another commission at the University, with Grimshaw appointed to design the new Chemical Science and Engineering Building adjacent to the MSEB.

Michael is currently the Project Director of the new city centre for the Marassi Al Bahrain reclaimed island in Bahrain. This mixed-use master plan project comprises three key character neighbourhoods including a retail mall, residential apartments, a VIDA and Address Hotel and serviced apartments, covering an area of 250,000 sqm.
