Westbourne Grove Lofts consists of the conversion and extension of an existing office building into 5 lateral loft style apartments with ground floor retail close to Nothing Hill in West London. We were approached by our client to undertake a design review of the consented planning scheme.
We successfully identified the opportunity to improve apartment layouts and efficiency, that were better coordinated with project’s aesthetics, increased internal floor areas and added a rooftop pavilion and large terrace to the penthouse level flat. Our sketch proposals were taken forward and we were appointed to deliver project on site and obtain planning consent for the rooftop extension which was eventually granted following success of a planning appeal.
In addition to creating striking loft apartments the project achieved 80% CO2 reduction through combination of fabric first approach and low carbon technologies.
