Two of our projects have been awarded both Regional and National RIBA Awards. The Fishing Hut in Hampshire which is a shelter and tackle store for anglers to fish on the river and Darbishire House on the Whitechapel Estate for Peabody is low-cost housing comprising 13 social rented units in 1/2/3 and 4-bed configurations.
We have completed our housing project for the Peabody Trust in John Fisher Street in Whitechapel, London. 13 families now occupy the building. It was built on an empty site in Henry Derbyshire’s Peabody Estate from 1870. The building is made from brick with deep precast concrete reveals, framing large windows and balconies. It is a real pleasure to see the balconies occupied by plants, bikes and carpets; people hanging out the windows watching their children playing in the courtyard below.
