Selected projects

Rochester Riverside, Medway Out of town regeneration

Client: Countryside & Hyde Value: £400m Number of homes: 656 Tenure mix: 18% affordable, 82% private Other uses: Hotel (2951m2) and commercial (431m2) Site size: 10.75 ha Planning approved: January 2018 Awards: ‘Winner of Winners’ and ‘Building for a Healthy Life’ // 2020 Housing Design Awards

// Exciting times for Kent! Rochester Riverside’s win puts Medway right on the national the map of design excellence and should raise the bar locally. Ambitious neighbours like Chatham will be encouraged to reach for high quality placemaking. // HDA Judge and Chair of Medway Design Review Panel, Jane Briginshaw

The Housing Design Award winning Rochester Riverside is extending the historic centre of Rochester with the creation of 656 new homes as part of a 1400-home masterplan alongside significant commercial spaces and a hotel.

Working closely with Countryside and Hyde, BPTW developed the detailed design for the first four phases and secured planning permission for phases one to three in 2017.

The design draws inspiration from the Medway area to balance the rich, historic context with the new, vibrant urban quarter. Aiming to establish a thriving, diverse community, we have developed homes of varied tenures and typologies including family homes, maisonettes and apartments, all set within a public space network designed for the riverside location. Phases one and two are now in construction with 131 homes occupied.

New Road, Rainham Urban/London regeneration/placemaking

Client: Clarion Value: Undisclosed Number of homes: 717 Tenure mix: 35% affordable, 65% private sale Other uses: 1,000sqm commercial and retail, 300sqm social spaces Site size: 3.53ha Completion Date: 2025

// Rainham is a fast-growing destination given its proximity to London and we’re delighted to be bringing much-needed new homes to the area. With a focus on placemaking, we’ll be working with BPTW to deliver modern, generous homes surrounded by green spaces... // Richard Cook, Group Director of Development for Clarion Housing Group

90 New Road is a residential led mixed-use regeneration development of 717 homes and 1,000m2 commercial space on an existing brownfield site in Rainham, LB Havering. The proposed masterplan for the client Clarion creates a neighbourhood of buildings, ranging from 2-12 storeys, set around a series of landscaped gardens and new public spaces.

New Road will provide a combination of apartments, maisonettes and townhouses across a mix of tenures, creating a destination with a strong sense of identity and placemaking that is designed to respond and complement the existing and emerging context to create a place where new and existing residents can thrive and above all love to live.

Shakespeare House, Hackney An exemplar approach to retrofitting existing buildings

Client: Islington and Shoreditch HA Value: £2.5m Number of homes: 18 Tenure mix: 100% affordable Site size: 0.2 ha Planning approved: March 2012 Awards: Shortlisted in The Sustainable Housing Awards and the Hackney Design Awards.

// I am really proud that this beautiful new development is providing new, high-quality affordable homes for local people and has brought this formerly derelict site and the town hall back into use for the benefit of the local community. // Sarah Ebanja, chairman of Newlon Housing Trust

BPTW’s refurbishment of Shakespeare House in Hackney, for Islington and Shoreditch Housing Association, is a unique conversion of a fourstorey residential building to create eighteen high-quality, modern apartments. The 100% affordable development was completed in 2014 and involved the transformation of a poor-quality 1930’s building. BPTW’s work included an internal reconfiguration to provide generous living

spaces and improved kitchens and bathrooms, enhancements to the building’s fabric by increasing insulation levels to mitigate damp and improve energy efficiency. The external facades were recovered with an attractive brick cladding and the balconies were increased in size to improve the building’s appearance and durability.

Thrale Almshouses, Streatham Small site infill, elderly housing

Client: Thrale Almshouses and Relief in Need Charity Value: Undisclosed Number of homes: 17 Tenure mix: 100% affordable Site size: 0.26 ha Planning approved: xxxx Awards: Shortlisted in the RICS Awards 2018, the Housing Design Awards 2014 and 2016, the NLA Awards 2016, and the London Planning Awards 2016.

// We’ve not only increased the number of homes we can provide, they’re much better quality and we’re really proud of having achieved that. A big thank you to bptw who were the original architects who had the vision. Everyone keeps saying they look just like on those originals drawings, which I always thought was the idea, but they really are, down to the colour of the windows and the frames, which just looks perfect. // Julie Vickers, Director, Thrale Almshouses and Relief In Need Charity

Providing a contemporary interpretation of a historic typology, Thrale involved the sensitive refurbishment and extension of eight locally listed almshouses in Streatham, and the design of nine high-quality, new apartments. Completed in 2016 for Thrale Almshouses and Relief in Need Charity, the project provides a total of 17 100% affordable homes for women over 60, set around a landscaped courtyard.

The contemporary additions incorporate a repeating motif of the gable roof, introducing a strong, simple identity based on a traditional form. Renovating the almshouses was a balancing act between upgrading the outmoded 1930s housing standards by aspiring to the HAPPI design guidance and staying true to their Edwardian aesthetic.

Creek Road, Greenwich Urban infilling

Client: Peabody Value: £22m Number of homes: 83 Tenure mix: 23% affordable, 52% shared ownership, 25% private Other uses: 900sqm retail, 900sqm gym Site size: 0.409ha Completion Date: June 2017

// I commend the applicant and their design team for their skill in dealing so well with what is a difficult and sensitive site and believe this development will be enormously beneficial for Greenwich Town Centre // Greenwich Council Planning Commitee

Creek Road is a striking commercial-residential scheme in the centre of Greenwich. Designed for Peabody, the scheme features 83 homes in a balance of high-quality apartments and carefully composed mew houses, with 1800sqm of retail space.

Completed in 2017, the project was voted “The Architects’ Choice” at the Brick Awards, commending how the modest and thoughtful detailing inspired by the local context allows the design to seamlessly transition into the surrounding conservation area. The project highlights how a contemporary intervention into an established setting can be positive for all.

Parkside, Lewisham Estate regeneration

Our aim is develop a new community and high quality design is key to this aspiration. We feel that we have achieved this with BPTW. We are delighted that we have planning approval for Phase 4 and excited to be moving forward with this latest milestone. We are looking forward to working together in the future. // Rob Warwick, Planning Manager, Family Mosaic

BPTW’s transformative proposals for the Heathside and Lethbridge Estates provide 1,255 homes in a high density, mixed-tenure development within Lewisham. The new buildings range from three to seventeen storeys and provide retail spaces and a community centre. Phase four was completed in 2018 and the final phases five and six were submitted for planning in 2019. BPTW and Peabody have

developed a programme to ensure the scheme delivers attractive, innovative solutions that are cost-effective, exemplary in design and tenure blind. Based on strong urban design principles, the development enhances the neighbourhood by creating distinct character areas within a holistically considered masterplan. BPTW has worked on the pre and post planning stages of the project, including the delivery of phase 4.

Cambridge House, Croydon Tower

Client: Notting Hill Genesis Value: £24m Number of homes: 92 Tenure mix: 45% shared ownership, 55% private Other uses: 200sqm community centre Site size: 0.12 ha Planning approved: July 2018 Completion Date: September 2020

// With Cambridge House we sought to deliver a high quality and carefully considered scheme which will positively contribute to the ongoing rejuvenation of Croydon and provides contemporary homes for the area. We have worked successfully with the local planners and a committed project team; including BPTW whose understanding of the local context has informed an exemplar design response which has been instrumental in achieving planning permission for the scheme. // Mathhew Cornwall-Jones, Technical & Planning Director at Notting Hill

Designed for Notting Hill Genesis, Cambridge House is a landmark 26-storey residential building located on Wellesley Road in the heart of Croydon’s tall buildings district. The proposal provides 92, mixed-tenure homes in a variety of one, two and three bedroom flats, all with winter garden balconies. The proposal secured planning permission 2018 and is due for completion on site in 2020.

The restricted nature of the site has resulted in an efficient layout, enabling 79% of dwellings to be dual or triple-aspect, providing high levels of natural light internally and a far-reaching outlook across London. The winter gardens allow residents to fully open or enclose their private amenity space.

Magna, Cambridge Out of london

Client: Hill Value: £16m Number of homes: 95 (8 houses & 87 apartments) Tenure mix: 40% affordable, 60% private Site size: 0.82 ha Completion Date: December 2016

// A well thought out scheme and a very good design. // Vice Chair of Cambridge City Council Planning Committee Cllr Blencowe

Shaping a key gateway into Cambridge, Magna provides a high quality development of 95 homes that can be enjoyed by new residents and the existing community. Completed in 2016 for Hill, the proposal challenged a previously approved outline masterplan and successfully maximised the site’s potential, creating a series of pavilion apartment blocks placed around a communal green.

Inspired by the site’s ties to local craftsmanship and its historic significance, the contextual use of brick and contemporary detailing form an imaginative and distinctive design that was shortlisted for a RIBA East award.

Alkerden Gateway, Kent Customisable homes

Client: Westerhill Homes Value: Undisclosed Number of homes: 67 Tenure mix: 50 private sale, 17 affordable homes Site size: xxxxxx Planning approved: xxxxxxx

// The proposal adheres to the AMP/ADC and sets out an extremely high quality of architectural design which will deliver attractive buildings set in home zones allowing social interaction, which will be complemented by quality landscaping including a good coverage of trees and benches. // Planning Committee Report

Located within Ebbsfleet Garden City, our Alkerden Gateway scheme will provide 67 custom build mixed-tenure homes offering 1 and 2 bedroom apartments as well as 3 and 4 bedroom dwellings. Using a simple interpretation of suburban family house types with contemporary design that uses traditional forms, BPTW have designed a scheme that is ideal for family living.

Comprised of 5 key areas with design features chosen to create a unique neighbourhood, Alkerden Gateway has an intimate cul-de-sac feel. With further development due to take place around the site, residents will be within close proximity to Alkerden Market Centre, as well as a secondary school, primary school, community facilities, health facilities and a community sports centre.

Southgate Office Village, Enfield Creating new local centres in London suburbs

// The scheme would take advantage of its town centre location and public transport accessibility while balancing the prevailing character of the surrounding area to provide substantial regeneration benefits.” // from London Borough of Enfield’s Planning Committee Report, June 2020

Located adjacent to Southgate conservation area and the Charles Holden listed Southgate tube station, the mixed use scheme is in a key location and reflects the ambition and aspiration the Local Council has for the town centre.
