This former disused building was converted into a mixed-use development of 6 spacious loft apartments with an office and space for a cafe/restaurant in the basement. The site was split into 3 elements: a 2 storey frontage building on Water Street and 2 warehouse volumes that took up the entirety of the rear of the site. Working closely with Javelin Block to help them achieve their vision, our role was to prepare the design proposals, planning application and building regulations drawings for a change of use. planning application and building regulations drawings for a change
of use. Javelin Block were keen to retain the existing buildings and adapt them to suit the proposed new uses, so the interiors of the warehouses were carefully dismantled and a new 4 storey steel frame inserted to create large open volumes and floor plates. The existing features were reused and enhanced wherever possible to create an industrial-style property with unique character.
