We designed this building on a minimal budget. Our team still consider this project to a successful building that contributes to the context of the squnity bridge. The project is what we would term 'industrial' housing and certainly has not got the refinement of a Richard Murphy residential extension.
Compared to what the developer threatened to construct prior to our involvement; i.e. same as previous phase, we believe we have given something to the River front. I have two friends who live in the building and they love its space, light and views ... its robust detailing and metal facade!
We never did get a design award for this scheme as the year we submitted it was extensions galore. I would challenge anyone to do better through the design build process.
