Jewellery Quarter
Completed 2005

The brief was to produce a design for 55 residential apartments with a basement parking area on a tight site in the Jewellery Quarter. The design concept was to provide a distilled version of the nearby Victorian industrial buildings using a palette of just brick and glass. The street façade contains greater modelling than the other elevations with the structural bays defined by a giant order of brick piers and the windows and spandrels

set back by one brick. This formal front elevation continues the rhythm of listed buildings alongside. This subtle referencing of the historic fabric continues on the other facades in that the windows are composed in an informal arrangement which mirrors the adjacent properties.
