Weston Street, located in the heart of Bermondsey, is our latest project. We have been working on it for over 10 years with long standing collaborator and architect Simon Allford, co-founder of AHMM, the practice that won the RIBA Stirling Prize 2015, the highest architectural accolade.
The scheme comprises eight tessellating Solidspace apartments stacked above almost 5000 sq ft of ‘Brutalist’ office space. The apartments face south over the neighbouring park and conservation area. They are all two- or three-bedrooms arranged over half levels and incorporate the Solidspace DNA
Like the neighbouring Shard, the building has a minimalist, modern aesthetic, while the bricks reference the surrounding historic warehouses, and the aluminium window frames reproduce the elegance of the vernacular crittall windows.
This area of London has undergone a significant amount of change in the last decade and we have watched as it has changed and evolved. Now, the area is home to the bustling Borough Market and the ever popular Tate Modern, which is located just a short walk from Weston Street.
