We have always thought that the duplex apartments at Hatfield and Basterfield House at Golden Lane, by Chamberlin Powell and Bon, are among the best designed small flats in London. Shoreditch based studio Archmongers have had the enviable task of fully refurbishing one for a lucky client - and the results are beautiful.

The long established firm of RMJM are high flyers in Beedier`s Social Media Zeitgeist listings. Now, with offices in every continent, they are a British firm consistently designing high quality largescale projects across the world. This new addition to the portfolio, revealed last week, is formed of two stacked 30 storey office towers on a mixed-used podium in Saudi Arabia.
Reposted from @rmjmofficial - always with permission
"Comprising two striking twin towers (G+3P+26) and spanning 132,700 square meters, this project draws inspiration from the resilience and beauty of natural rock formations in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
As Hrishikesh Borse, Senior Architect at RMJM Dubai, notes, “The Asas Office Towers represent a visionary blend of nature and urban life, fostering a vibrant community within its walls.”
Key Features:
- Thoughtful Design: A strategic solid-to-void ratio enhances privacy on lower levels while maximizing natural light and views on upper tiers.
- Dynamic Façade: The captivating exterior blends glass, metal, and natural stone, creating a visually striking structure that evolves with light.
- Sustainable Practices: Incorporating rainwater harvesting and energy-efficient systems, the Asas Office Towers set a benchmark for future urban developments.

Historic library buildings are really some of our most valuable urban structures, and they have been having a rough time of it over the past fifteen years. So it is especially great to see a project such as this in South East London by Hawkins Brown, who are so good at bringing historic buildings to life in contemporary ways.

"The novelist Jorge Luis Borges once said, "I have always imagined paradise as a kind of library."
We might not claim to have built paradise at the Plumstead Centre, which features in a new article from @archdaily, but we certainly tried! This project restored Plumstead`s turn-of-the-century library and introduced a cafe, dance studio, and other flexible leisure facilities to encourage the community to return and reclaim the building.
How do you use your local library? What would make it closer to paradise? Let us know in the comments, and read ArchDaily`s article at the link in bio!"

A characterful new renovation of an historic house in Hitchin - with some striking features designed by local architect Michael Collins. We love a post that intersperses some working drawings to help us understand the project.

"Sneak peek of Elmside, the recently completed deep retrofit and extension of a historic lodge in Hitchin. This building had been badly neglected and its redevelopment was a long labour of love alongside our wonderful clients and @ardentconstructionltd.
The building was home to James Hack Tuke founder to Girton College and an early feminist advocate. The historic building was insulated beyond 2026 new build standards, with specialist low energy leaded glazing, with an energy centre and solar array powering its air source heating system.
A new wraparound extension creates a dramatic stair tower, and new kitchen area. The use of timber framing, copper, wildflower roof and decorated brickwork speaks to the original ornate terracotta detailed facade and restored lacework pargetting.
More to follow."

Knowing it very well, Lewisham High Street is an urban environment that could benefit from architectural intervention, and this new market structure by Studio Weave is an exciting prospect. A wonderful commission from Lewisham Council, and a beautifully realised planning scheme. We look forward to filling our bags with bowls of bargain ripened fruit from it in due course - eat it quick!
Reposted from @studioweave - always with permission.
"Planning — Granted!"
We’ve been working with @lewishamcouncil on the Lewisham Market Structure for the past 18 months, and we just had planning permission granted !
It’s a new focal point for an ancient market — a market house with adjoining canopies, which will provide shelter for one of London’s longest standing seven-day markets and the wider community. This project sets out to revitalise the Market as a backdrop for daily life, improving the everyday; whether it be meeting friends, loved ones or even just buying potatoes!
The vision for Lewisham Market is to strengthen and revitalise the heart of Lewisham. The notable market attracts and connects the community and provides a point of local pride. Together with the landscape proposals, it aims to create a more vibrant, green, and accessible public space that embodies the character of Lewisham and its diverse cultural identity"

Wandsworth based Sketch Architects have utilised the diverse awards programme to great effect here, with a nomination for a beautiful new eco home on a sensitive urban site in Lymington, at the edge of the New Forest. The Build It Awards are focussed on small residential homes and renovations, with a wide range of award categories. The house was designed and built using SIPS (Structural Insulated Panels), a prefabricated modern method of construction which offers very high thermal performance and excellent airtightness.

A circular economy call to arms from Dalston based Office S&M. The Tate Institute in Silvertown has been abandoned since 2007, and this consented planning proposal for the retrofit of the building for a mixed-use community space, will bring it back to life. Office S&M are seeking reusable construction materials for the development of the project, in liaison with the re-use team at re:new, a wonderful resource for promoting the circular economy.
@officesandm
"Planning Approved! But can you supply materials for this new community space?
The Tate Institute deep retrofit has been approved under delegated powers with no conditions thanks to your letters of support, and now we need your help to source unwanted construction materials for the build!
We’re already on site with the circular economy and natural material-led retrofit work on this locally listed building, so we’re on the hunt for large and small quantities of very common surplus or second-hand materials including:
- Insulation (PIR for the floor, any thickness of rigid or flexible woodwool for the walls and roof, and any thickness of rigid mineral wool)
- Structural timber and/or roofing battens
- Sand
- Rolls of DPM
- Internal doorsets
- Rolls of linoleum
- and much more...
Second-hand material sourcing is being brokered by by Re:New for @reinstate_project and @respaceprojects . Please email saskia@re-new.io and lottie@reinstate.info and hugh@officesandm.com or DM us for any leads!
We have already been blessed with:
- 50 sheets of CLT from Populo Living @populoliving
- Medieval stone from the London Museum @wearelondonmuseum
- 70m of metal hoarding from Neilcott Construction
- Gutters and downpipes from Berkeley @berkeley_group
- Sanitaryware and kitchen via Cundall @cundall_global
- Timber flooring from mining the existing building!

Henry J Lyons are one of four Irish architecture practices that appear in the Beedier Social Media Zeitgeist Top 100 listings. It is a large studio, employing over 250 people, but there is still room for smaller bespoke projects such as this timber clubhouse in the grounds of the Montenotte Hotel - bringing the guests closer to the woodlands.
Reposted from @henryjlyons - always with permission.
"Henry J Lyons’ design for the redevelopment of the grounds of the Montenotte Hotel provides nine lightweight suites and a clubhouse within a rejuvenated woodland. Our design concept centred on integrating modern elegance with the existing woodland environment. The suites, inspired by cantilevered and nest-like structures, were designed to preserve the natural topography while offering expansive panoramic views. Surprise elements are crafted throughout the journey to the units, and expansive picture windows greet guests with breath-taking views."

Nooma is a diverse studio of young designers from London. Here they reveal a set of proposals, that not only make spatial and form-making proposals for an intergenerational community, but also illustrate how it is used by individuals and their families. We like the comic-strip illustrations, and the "What do People Do All Day?" approach to the narrative.

As part of Nooma’s ongoing research of intergenerational design, our project, The Big Playground is a communal sandbox crafted to bring people of all ages and abilities together, underlining the importance of play and community for overall well-being. The project represents our tailored solution to address the distinct requirements of Enfield residents. The Enfieldians’ personas were shaped through on-site interviews and our firsthand encounters with individuals from our own experiences living in London.
We also tackle the issue of outdated housing standards, which are created for nuclear families and lack consideration for three-dimensional living. It’s only when we shift our perspective to consider housing in three dimensions that we can begin to develop culturally tailored residences that cater to the specific needs of inhabitants and promote their well-being"

A beautifully crafted lower-ground entrance space in an historic building by Bermondsey studio pensaer, led by founder Rhys Owen since 2020. "Pensaer means `lead craftsperson’. Our story begins with a love for artisanship and the process of making, and culminates in handcrafted architecture done well. By practising an ethos of gentle design we deliver architecture which aims to elevate and stimulate the senses."

"Our elegant workspace project in Westminster completed earlier this year. One particularly substantial change would be key to unlocking the whole experience of Belgravia House. It took meticulous planning, a rethinking of the fire-escape routes, and some well-coordinated heavy lifting once we were on site, but removing a substantial slab of concrete to create a double-height atrium has been – to put it mildly – transformational. Now the building positively welcomes visitors, with a visible (and much more assertive) entrance leading into a bright and comfortable reception. And with the ground floor and basement now one single space, natural light has forever banished the darkness that was here before."

Nebbia Works, an Islington based studio formed by Brando Posocco and Madhav Kidao in 2018, designed this eye-catching installation for this summer`s Coachella festival in California. Babylon consists of 64 steel-framed components clad in plywood and sprayed with plant-based cellulose insulation.
Reposted from @nebbia.works - always with permission.
"Babylon, 2024 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival.
The stacked assembly of blocks creates a cathedral-like interior void, projection mapped to create a kaleidoscopic cinematic environment. The visual storytelling of the film has been specifically curated to utilise the unique 360, multi faceted projection surface.
The installation is an exploration of monumentality, exuberance and absurdity. Its form builds upon Nebbia’s interest in contradictory structures, which appear to be concurrently primitive and otherworldly; solid and fragile. The installation explores how architecture in its most ancient forms has been universally used to understand and transcend the natural world to attempt to reach the skies both physically and metaphysically."

Shoreditch based GPAD have submitted planning proposals for this standalone housing project, an infill development on the edge of Preston Road Sports Ground in Wembley. The building`s form references the pavilion that once stood on the site.
Reposted from @gpadlondon - always with permission.
"Last month we submitted plans for Pellatt Road - the transformation of an underutilised piece of land opposite Preston Road Sports Ground into a bold and characterful new residential development in the heart of Wembley.
The design approach is rooted around the original Metroland ethos, with homes set within abundant greenspace amenity, whilst drawing architectural inspiration from exemplar modernist buildings within the borough.
The low-energy proposal features 13 generously proportioned dual-aspect homes that widen the offer available locally and support a community of all ages. Homes that will be environmentally responsible, with carefully selected enduring materials, super-insulated and with on-site renewables to deliver sustainable homes that are cheap to run.
The sculpted form addresses the sports ground in the spirit of the pavilion which once stood on the site. It responds to, and acknowledges, its proximity to neighbouring homes with articulation offering further space for planting, shared amenity and retention of existing trees."

This extension to an interwar house with hipped roof creates textural interest through soft timber cladding, "the Siberian Larch is imbued with oil to naturally weather the timber to a silvery grey and is laid in an alternating pattern in terms of timber widths to give a playful appearance to the façade and offset the sharp lines of the hipped roof and dormer."

Community and public building specialists, Citizens Design Bureau are assisting Newham Council in bringing the building, a disused sports hall and community centre, back into public use. We look forward to seeing the results.

"This is the Will Thorne Pavilion in Newham. Absolutely can’t wait for this project to go on site in a few weeks to bring such an incredible building back to life … It has been disused for over 20 years and we are turning it into a community centre and cafe for @newhamlondon
Watch this space…!"
Great work by @jasneet_ra and @marc.ostri

A beautiful reinvention of existing structures in London, to create high quality new workspaces in central London by Fletcher Priest Architects. "By retaining 85% of the existing structure and façade, Marylebone Place sustainably reimagines a tired office site into 75,000 sq ft of workspace" - and they have offered some striking new contextual/contemporary facades to the streetscape in the process. Read the article at AJ for the full lowdown.

"First look of the completed Marylebone Place with the Architects’ Journal.
"Overall, Marylebone Place sustainably reimagines a tired office site, integrating historic elements and with modern, appealing, and robust workplace that not only serves its tenants, but also brings joy and detail to the surrounding neighbourhood, making it a more engaging and vibrant place to be," shares managing partner Ed Williams."

Not one but two great housing projects by London based Acme are attracting attention in this year`s architectural award lists. Founded in 2007, Acme is a medium size studio that is growing fast - with a collection of striking projects in the commercial, residential and public realm sectors - across the world. We particularly love Shoreline, a reinterpretation of the seaside crescent typology in Folkestone, inversed, and beautifully curvy in every way. While The Haydon project responds in a different way to the context of central London, a singular block on a tight site with a dense array of staggered apartments.

Founded in 1977, Edinburgh based Simpson & Brown fuses contemporary architecture with the conservation design and research skills necessary to design for heritage buildings. The reinvention of Fairborn Tower ruin in the Scottish Highlands, is an eye catching example of a comprehensive heritage refurbishment to create holiday accommodation for the Landmark Trust.

"We are delighted that the restoration of Fairburn Tower for the @landmarktrust has won the Heritage Project category in the @ricssurveyors Scotland Awards 2024. The project saw the Category A listed tower transformed from a roofless ruin into high quality holiday accommodation. Appropriate traditional materials and craftsmanship were balanced with carefully integrated necessary modern services."

A fantastic competition win from Gort Scott shared on the socials and press this week. There are already so many great buildings at Girton College, including the historic campus buildings by Alfred Waterhouse, and this will be a great addition to the collection.

"We are pleased to share news of our recent appointment with Girton College, University of Cambridge.
Gort Scott – working alongside J&L Gibbons and Price & Myers – has won a design competition for a major planned addition to the College. The 9,400m2 New Court project will be the most significant single building project on the College’s main site since its foundation, and will allow the College to accommodate a larger number of undergraduate and postgraduate students in the heart of the College, while improving conference and performance facilities, including an iconic auditorium. With an emphasis on sustainability, health and well-being and connections between people, buildings and landscape, Gort Scott’s successful approach draws upon the College’s inclusive ethos and rich architectural heritage.
The New Court project will be the latest in a series of higher education projects by the practice including St Hilda’s College, Oxford and St Catharine’s College, Cambridge."

With a portfolio of completed projects across East Anglia, Norwich based Hudson Architects are architects of distinctive houses, residential developments and community led public buildings. We appreciated this candid photo on of a project under construction - the contrast between the bold exo-skeleton and glass facade on a sunny day.

"Extending the indoors, outdoors…
Extension and reconfiguration of a Grade II listed farmhouse just outside of Norwich.
By updating the original design with sleek, minimalist lines and large, energy-efficient glass panels, this inviting space offers a seamless, light-filled transition to the garden."

Founded by Ryan Neiheiser and Xristina Argyros in 2015, Neiheiser Argyros is a Kilburn and London based studio who have produced a string of wonderful projects, concepts and installations. Their public realm project for Astir Marina, in southern mainland Greece supports a new mixed development around the quay.
Reposted from @neiheiser_argyros - always with permission.
"The landscape design of the new Astir Marina is a giant map of the history and current pressures on the site, literally drawn into the hardscape of the new marina. Like the map in Borges’ short story, On the Exactitude of Science, the project is a map that is as accurate as the reality it represents. The map is the territory.
The concept for the project emerges out of the unique challenge of designing a landscape where there is currently no land. One way of thinking about this lack of land is that it’s a blank site – a void – a tabula rasa. But of course this isn’t the case. The sea makes invisible the complex and dynamic ecosystems of the sea bed which is continuous with the visible ground. We started by looking at ways of representing this sea landscape; the nautical charts and maps that use elevation marks, contours, wind vectors, gradients of color, and hatches to represent the territory that is both above and below the water line. We were particularly inspired by the aesthetic of topographic contours, traces of the ground projected onto a flat 2d surface.
We looked back at the geographic history of the site, using old military aerial scans from World War II, in order to discover the original or “natural” shape of the ground, with its beaches, and coves, and islands. We found this prehistory really exciting and wanted to try and tell the geologic story of this site in our design. We therefore overlayed the historic contours with the marina outline generated by the marine engineers for the project."

The simple message of this post by Hoxton based Bureau de Change Architects is - if you want an amazing shopfront design, then come to see us. They really are expert detailers of contemporary decorative facades, even at the smaller typological scale of a retail frontage, they have packed in so much.

GRID Architects was founded in 2009 by Craig Casci (now retired), Colin Veitch and Laurence Osborn, who had met whilst working at Hamilton Associates - a company that divided into multiple great new studios when it closed in 2010. Their portfolio includes an impressive collection of large housing, build to rent, workplace, and mixed use buildings across London. We love the curved underside of the crown of this recently consented residential tower in Battersea - framing the top balconies which appear as both inset, and open at the same time.

"We are pleased to announce that our 80-100 Gwynne Road project has received planning approval from the London Borough of Wandsworth’s planning committee. The project, developed in collaboration with URE Group, aims to re-provide 100% of the existing light industrial space while also creating a new residential destination with 88 apartments, 35% of which are designated for affordable housing.
The top of the building has been designed with a “final flourish,” harmonizing with the architectural aesthetics of the ground floor. Arches serve as a unifying element between the top and base of the structure, appearing above windows and balcony openings. The top two floors are treated in the same material as the ground and first floors, emphasizing the visual connection and reinforcing architectural harmony. The east and west façades follow these principles, with a solid base featuring arched openings, a one-storey gridded elevation on the lower floors, and a similar two-storey pattern on the upper levels. The extended top floor creates a slimmer, elegant crown for the building."

Manchester based Define Architects, founded in 2018 by husband and wife team of Gavin and Ashley Taylor Watts, have developed a portfolio of residential and community projects in the region. We enjoy seeing projects that utilise the existing structural properties of older buildings to create something new. Student accommodation is a booming sector with construction contracts up by 34% in the last year.

"DEF_060/ Oxford Road, Manchester - Submitted for planning and tender, the project focuses on transforming and extending an existing bank into PBSA student accommodation and retail.
The scheme pays respect to the existing materiality and structure on site by utilising and repurposing the concrete shell and cladding.
The façade has been transformed through the introduction of a larger grid and new window module without compromising the structural shell of the building.
A rooftop extension adds much needed additional space to the site whilst improving the building’s proportions and an extension of the building on Oxford Road is introduced to ‘complete’ the corner of the site and align the building to the street edge."
