NEW LONDON AWARDS 2020

Shortlisted in the CONSERVING category

The new scheme improved the proportions of the mansard roof to the townhouse and added two new floors to the warehouse to balance and foreground the older building. Old and new blend on the façade: the generous, arched windows punched into the factory’s original brick wall have new metal-framed windows, while the shop below is clad in green ceramic tiles.
