Wakefield Street Townhouses win Regional RIBA Award

14th June

The London RIBA Awards aim to “recognise quality, innovative architecture within the capital” and are judged by a panel of architects and specialists. Designed by Piercy&Company for Great Marlborough Estates, the three light-filled, open-plan townhouses were among the first to be built in the Bloomsbury Conservation Area for more than 90 years.

The contemporary design echoes the materials and proportions of the surrounding historic fabric. Heavily textured masonry and finely detailed stone cills, lintels and stringer courses create a contextually sensitive skin whilst the window proportions and generous floor to ceiling heights reflect the rich architectural language of neighbouring Georgian buildings.

Our thanks and congratulations to the project team.
