Renovation and conversion of a Georgian warehouse 2006-2008

The Brief

The brief was to convert this part of a late Georgian warehouse into a three-bedroom apartment with separate office.

 

Strategy

Our strategy has been to restore the historic fabric and to retain period features, whilst upgrading the envelope to meet today’s regulations.

This warehouse has fantastic open spaces that define its character. We developed a free-standing sculptural object made of white oak that sits within the floor plate and generates the spaces. This box contains the subservient spaces such as bathrooms and storage.
