NEW LONDON AWARDS 2020

Shortlisted in the CONSERVING category

The Gaslight in Fitzrovia is a new mixed-use commercial development that has been created within the shell of a handsome Art Deco building. The robust industrial setting has been reconfigured, refurbished and extended – transforming the building into a contemporary workspace and increasing the lettable volume by more than 75 per cent. The aim was to create a distinct character and long-lasting value that reaches beyond the fads and trends that are commonplace within the office sector. The result is a design that reflects the specific character of the area, once alive with artisanal workshops.
