DMWR Architects led the scheme through detailed design and on site, optimising layouts to add 16 additional student bed spaces and reconfiguring the residential core to improve buildability and cost efficiency.
They also supported the client with the BAPA agreement with LORL and National Rail, and formalised design efficiencies through NMA Planning Applications for basement reduction, building height adjustment, and increased PBSA capacity. DMWR ensured compliance with London Plan standards, including accessibility and private outdoor space for each home.
The scheme delivers high-quality, mixed-tenure housing and student accommodation with enhanced amenity provision and public realm.
DMWR’s design interventions added value for the client, improved spatial efficiency, and ensured the development meets both planning and community needs. Completion is expected in 2026.
