Why Bermondsey

Bermondsey's housing pattern shapes the design

Bermondsey is warehouse conversions, Georgian fragments. The dominant stock — warehouse conversions, georgian terraces, new-build — has specific constraints and opportunities for planning permission drawings. Side returns sit better on bay-fronted Victorian terraces than on detached 1930s semis. Mansards work where the existing roofscape supports them. We design to the block, not the brochure.
