With an ever-increasing demand for flats in the UK's capital, we delivered the very best in luxury living with a development of 36 flats and a townhouse in one of the most sought-after areas in London.
The residential development, featuring a private spa, natural stone-lined swimming pool, and basement car park, required highly skilled workmanship. Hand-picked stone finishes, complex materials, and bespoke joinery ensured the building was finished to an exceptional standard. Combining sustainable materials with high-end finishes, we used photovoltaic cells and a ground source heat pump for renewable heating and cooling.
The roofs were designed to collect rainwater for the landscaped gardens. The superior finish extends into the grounds of the complex, with raised water features, high-quality paving, and hardwood timber decking among many plants and trees. The entire façade used prefabrication techniques, eliminating the need for external scaffolding. Early input from the design team and supply chain allowed us to design a precast solution for the structural frame. We used a Portland stone precast façade that met all design criteria for thermal, fire, and acoustic separation, and finished it with a ‘hand set’ appearance.
Despite challenges such as a no-build zone around adjacent pipework and concurrent reservoir remodelling, we successfully completed the project. Part of the building structure was cantilevered 12 metres above the ground, involving complex design and construction of structural steel compound beams. This project stands as a testament to innovative construction techniques and exceptional craftsmanship.
