Journalist, Rowan Moore has reviewed our development at Shepherdess Walk in The Observer on 7 February 2016. He talks of the hidden depths of the project and remarks on the Solidspace DNA form as follows:
“Inside, the homes are based on what their developer Roger Zogolovitch calls the “split section”, an idea he has explored on other smallish developments that his company Solidspace has dotted around the capital. This means that you progress up them from half-level to half-level, rather than whole floors at a time, which means that space flows through the building rather than being compartmentalised…The idea is to reflect contemporary ways of living, rather than replicate Victorian hierarchies that have long since disappeared.
The arrangement also makes movement through the houses and apartments into imaginative journeys, with continuously changing shapes and proportions, falls of light, relationships of one room or level to another, and of interior to external terraces and balconies and to views of surroundings or of the sky. It considers inhabitation to be something done in different ways in different places, and at different times of day.”
