About this project
This former Central London office building, located in the Charlotte Street conversation area, has recently been refurbished and extended to include a single storey roof extension, also adding flexible use space at ground and lower ground level with office space above.
Windows were replaced and the existing render was removed to reveal the brickwork underneath.
Four different samples of KEIM Restauro Lasur were tested as shown below, with the final selection of colour 9552 from our KEIM Exclusiv colour swatch.
Stagg Architects were in consultation with the local Conservation Officer and the colour was chosen to work in harmony with stone buildings in the area and the Grade II Listed modernist building next door.
With an increasing awareness of climate change and a requirement to reduce carbon emissions within the construction industry, 27-29 Whitfield Street is a fantastic example of putting reuse into practise.
With some careful thought, consideration and design, it is possible to retain and modernise existing facades and building structures for future occupants and generations to enjoy.
We are delighted that we were specified for this project and the reduced impact that has been made on the environment.
