Lease transfer feasibility study of a deep plan industrial building. A 3D masterplan to bring in fresh air and light; social interaction, skills/knowledge sharing through a community 'village green'.
Aukett Swanke were invited to design a transformation of the inner volumes of this 2 storey industrial building with the agility to become an agile mix of uses including workplace / R&D / manufacture / education and leisure options within the confines of perimeter workplace and gantry uses by others. From dark airless caves we drew air and daylight from above by carving out a Manhattan grid of two avenues and three cross streets to create 12 development plots, adding interim CLT floors to double the floor area. This created a truly agile and enticing variety of public and private settings that can accommodate the industrious to the delicate.
