lambeth civic quarter 2018, Cartwright Pickard Our masterplan for Lambeth Civic Quarter is centred around the refurbishment and expansion of the 1908 Grade- II listed Lambeth Town Hall in Brixton and the construction of an 11,000sqm BREEAM Excellent Civic Centre. The development also includes Somerset Place, a 94 home new build, and Ivor House, an Art Deco former department store which has been refurbished to create 26 new apartments. The final part of the scheme, Olive Morris House, will provide a further 74 new homes once completed.

This mixed-use retrofit project spans two roads – Moorgate and Coleman Street – creating two very different street-facing facades. The front facing Moorgate is gridded and Two storeys have been added to wrapped in a Portuguese Moleanos the existing 1980s-built structure, limestone, while the other is which is topped with a colonnaded divided into horizontal bands of walkway offering views out over the limestone and dark brick. city.

architectural addition and
a sequence of new public
spaces in the area’s Business
Improvement District.
The scheme provides 22,500sqm
of flexible office space and
970sqm of retail space. Rather than
being a single structure like the
former Bechtel House on the site,
Sheppard Robson’s design reduces
the mass of the development by
forming the building from two
parallel wings that are connected
by a central core, which houses
circulation space and services.

The 2-acre commercial campus, which features two buildings with over 500,000sqft of premium workspace, 35,000sqft of roof terraces, and two retail premises, has an acre of new public gardens at its heart. A series of pocket parks form the new terraced gardens, which are set among the restored remains of the Roman city wall and medieval St Alphage church tower. The ‘highwalks’ of the 1960s, meanwhile, have been reimagined as 350m of gently curving Corten bridges through and beyond the site.

Cartwright Pickard London 2021 27/48the hive 2019, Cartwright Pickard Quintain appointed us to design two neighbouring ‘sister’ buildings within the Wembley Park masterplan – Beton and The Hive – that share a common language but celebrate their different uses. The two buildings are clad in a distinctive glazed brick, have identically proportioned elevations and share the same approach to materials and detailing. The Hive is the first office building completed as part of the masterplan and offers 115,000 sqft of flexible office space and 10,000 sqft of retail.
beton 2020, Cartwright Pickard Beton has created 150 new studio, one and two-bedroom homes for rent at the heart of the masterplan with views over Wembley Stadium and its iconic arch. Our decision to expose the raw materiality of the concrete columns and soffits has given the building its unique character and name (‘Beton’ is French for concrete). Raw concrete ceilings in living spaces create a striking and honest aesthetic, enhancing floor-to-ceiling heights and maximising value. Cartwright Pickard London 2021 29/48

2018, Morris + Company
R7 is an 11-storey building in the
fast-developing area of King’s
Cross. It’s a civic-minded, pink-
enveloped office building, with a
public lobby, cinema, restaurant
and cocktail bar.
With this rounded mix of uses, the
architects have challenged the
norm for offices and the ground
floor experience is growing into a
welcoming public foyer where one
wants to spend time.
The two sides of the building rise
to different heights, determined
by the levels of the adjacent
university building. Breaking down
this massing through a series of
setbacks and recesses creates
south-facing terraces or gardens
on each level, which benefit from
views across the city.
