Located around an existing urban square on the Isle of Dogs, the three sites comprise underperforming office accommodation. Their established structures and relationship to the public realm provide a strong foundation for residential adaptation.

Creating 20 new high-quality homes within redundant office buildings in the Isle of Dogs.
“Working closely with our client, we have explored how existing buildings can be adapted rather than replaced, unlocking new homes within an established urban setting and contributing to a more active, balanced and sustainable neighbourhood.”
The proposals change the use from Class E office to Class C3 residential, introducing a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. The approach responds carefully to the existing buildings while creating varied, practical homes.
The project demonstrates how building less can achieve more. Through considered adaptation and careful intervention, existing assets are given a new purpose, delivering 20 homes while retaining the embodied value and character of the buildings.
