Kensington and Chelsea

A conversion of an existing 1930s reinforced concrete frame tower adjacent to the Grand Union Canal in north west London. The existing tower has been creatively adapted into a large residential property.

Key features

  • Infill of the lower floors
  • Rigorous investigation into the existing structure and foundation to understand additional load bearing capacity
  • Restricted site access lead to the development of a bespoke panelised timber frame which could be erected from an adjacent site
