HUB
The building comprises 173 two & three-bed rental apartments with retail provision at street level. All apartments are provided with generous living space and private balconies and occupants can make use of the social entertainment spaces, a BBQ terrace and rooftop allotments.
The M&E design adheres to the London Plan energy hierarchy and prioritises a passive-led approach to reducing CO2 emissions developed in collaboration with the lead designer, Newground Architects. The onsite CHP-led energy centre provides low carbon heating throughout the building.
The need for comfort cooling has been avoided through the use of solar control measures and mixed-mode ventilation to the apartments, whilst managing external noise impacts from nearby road and rail networks.
