The buildings form part of a masterplan by Sheppard Robson Architects for a new urban quarter encompassing the redevelopment of former hospital buildings on Little Britain and Bartholomew Close. The overall project comprises 17 buildings providing 215 apartments, 23,300 sq m of office space and some 2,300 sq m of retail and cafe/restaurant use. Work is expected to start in January 2015.
Lead architect for the project Sheppard Robson, Maccreanor Lavington and Piercy&Company have each designed facades that introduce diversity and layers of richness to the overall masterplan.
