This retrofit is a multi-level extension of a historic building through a series of staked maisonettes-like bridging between the Edwardian period building and the surrounding contemporary city scape.
Our City Approach project redefines urban living in London's Moorfields by extending a historic building into a dynamic multi-functional hub. This adaptive reuse retrofit adds staked maisonettes, sculptural staircases, and secret joinery, transforming roof voids into light-filled floors. Lightweight composites and a minimal finish blend with the heritage fabric, offering panoramic views within the urban context.
