A former 1970s brutalist Camden Council office building has been transformed into The Standard, London, a contemporary, boutique hotel.
Working with Orms, HTS built a full Revit model of the existing structure from archive drawings to highlight the risks and opportunities within the structure and the potential for reuse. The project successfully demonstrates how to optimise an existing building through a change of use for a long-life, loose fit future. 94% of the structure was reused, providing significant carbon savings.
