Nine Elms in progress.
The project is intended to offer a varied mix of residential unit types ranging from studios to family accommodation with generous private and shared amenity spaces which combined maximise the amount of active frontages facing the public space. The landscaping provides an enjoyable transition between public and communal space with the main aim being to bring spatial generosity to the arrival sequence of residential entrances.
The photographs and images illustrate the design and progress of Block E1 holding the South-West corner of the block, rising to twelve storeys of residential floors over a double height commercial plinth. The most striking element being the fluted ‘Golden-Sage Green’ lintels and cornices interlacing a ‘buff-yellow’ stock with ‘sandy-yellow’ glazing frames which come to the site as pre-fabricated units.
