Larlarb was Designer of the 2012 Summer Olympics opening ceremony , together with Mark Tildesley . She also designed the costumes and the ' dove bikes ' . She spoke of the creative brainstorming process in developing the ceremony between Boyle , Tildesley and writer Frank Cottrell Boyce : " It was so open . It could be anything . We were bouncing around every idea that came into your head about what was essentially British . Not being British , I could represent what the world thought Britain meant . Our mantra was that everything should feel human-scale : individual and idiosyncratic , less about slickness and perfection . " For her work on the ceremony , Larlarb was listed as one of " London 's 1000 most influential people 2012 " by the '' London Evening Standard '' , which commented that " the extraordinary dove bikes were her proudest achievement .
