London. 1999
- Project Details
- Completion: 1999
- Cost: £3.5 Million
- Clients: Derwent London plc
The main aim of Morelands, at the junction of Old Street and Goswell Road, was to retain the industrial character of the existing 1930s buildings whilst providing a strong identity, improved access and upgraded security. A convoluted tangle of disparate blocks, alleys and entrances was given new life by cleaning the fabric and generally tidying up. Sealing off all but one entrance brought a sense of place and forming a street between the buildings tied the blocks together. These surface moves are deceptively simple and has created 86,100 square feet of office space for a range of tenants.
