Project overview

The Hawley Wharf Masterplan has transformed a neglected part of Camden Down into a thriving, vibrant destination that has enhanced the identity of the area while paying tribute to the classic intents of London’s unmistakable architectural heritage.

Eight new buildings sit between existing railway viaducts and allow for open public space and connect the project to the wider area through re-established pedestrian pathways. A variety of homes, educational facilities, workplaces and more help solidify the area’s growth without straining its resources. Two refurbished Grade II listed buildings are also integrated into the development.

Our Freshfield Lane First Quality Multi & Selected Dark bricks look fantastic on the vast Hawley Wharf development cleverly designed by AHMM Architects Hawley Wharf has been announced as the Winner of Winners at the 2021 Housing Design Awards.

Modern healthcare building at The Worthing Integrated Care Centre in Worthing.
The Worthing Integrated Care Centre

Brick is central to the building's ability to mediate between competing contextual demands. The southern wing addresses the civic scale of the adjacent Law Courts and Assembly Rooms with a confident, formal elevation. The north wing, facing residential properties opposite, is more domestic in character, with punched windows set within a brick façade that strikes a considered relationship with the neighbouring streetscape.

Skinner Street

The 800,000 brick facade blends four brick types: 50% Michelmersh Synthesis 01, 40% Wrekin Berkshire, 6% Wrekin Dark Red and 4% Black Smooth. Thirteen different radii were incorporated across the facade, with some varying by as little as 2mm over a two-metre length, demonstrating that technical ambition and design conviction need not be in conflict.

Leon House, The Heights

Freshfield Lane First Quality Multi was chosen as the defining material, its warm range of red tones connecting The Heights directly to the established fabric of Greenwich. Highly articulated brickwork, enriched with precast detailing, gives the elevations depth and rhythm, rewarding close attention while reading confidently from a distance.
