Last night, 05 November, at the annual Building Awards ceremony Norton Folgate was highly commended for the Net Zero Award.
Comprising three urban blocks, Norton Folgate occupies a prominent position within the City Fringe between the City of London and Shoreditch. Rather than applying a blanket strategy, the masterplan employs a building-by-building approach to the retained existing buildings, utilising restoration, refurbishment, extension, remodelling, and façade retention to breathe new life into the architecture.
Given the variegated character of the site, four different architectural practices were brought together to diversify the architectural approach and style. AHMM was appointed masterplanner and designed three building, Blossom Yard & Studios, Nicholls and Clarke and Loom Court. Stanton Williams, Morris + Company, and DSDHA designed Elder Yard and Studios, 15 Norton Folgate, and 16 Blossom Court respectively, with East leading the public realm strategy.
Carbon reduction was intrinsic to the programme, achieving BREEAM Excellent and delivering a saving of more than 1,000 tonnes of CO2 against the original planning design. The project is British Land’s largest scale all-electric refurbishment scheme, which majors on heat sharing between six buildings whilst enabling the site to take advantage of future decarbonisation of the national grid.
