A major refurbishment and extension of a former gin distillery into an art-led creative hub.

The building will set a benchmark for the smart remodelling and reuse of existing building stock. Using the latest in timber engineering and design, lightweight CLT and Glulam elements will be used to extend the existing building, increasing the floor area by 60%. The building prioritises health and wellbeing, with improved internal circulation and spatial layouts as well as exposed timber panelling providing biophilic benefits.
