Chiswick Green is a stunning new residential scheme in the heart of Chiswick, recently completed for our client CHR Ltd.   We’re delighted to share final pics of the scheme, which comprises 133 new luxury apartments and four town houses, along with 9,000 sq ft of retail and leisure space, over four separate blocks. The new homes benefit from access to private outdoor space such as a balcony or garden, as well as communal roof terraces.   Designed by award-winning Assael Architecture, this complex and logistically challenging scheme involved the redevelopment of the previously disused Empire House office building into one and two-bedroom apartments with a new façade. Four townhouses and 46 apartments were constructed at Essex place, behind Chiswick High Road, with a further 21 apartments at the corner of Essex Place and Acton Lane.   The end result is something our teams can be very proud of, and we wish all the residents of Chiswick Green a very happy future in their new homes.   Structural Engineer Ramboll MEPH EDC - Engineering Design Consultants #projectcompletion #Chiswick #residentialconstruction #Londonconstruction #loveconstruction

Congratulations to our Hammersmith team who have scored full marks in their most recent Considerate Constructors Scheme (CCS) report, for the fifth time in a row! The CCS scheme is a comprehensive measure of how contractors respect the community, care for the environment and value their workforce. The Hammersmith site was noted as having a very engaging team and supportive client-contractor relationship, and was commended for establishing and maintaining good relationships with the local community. The team has worked hard to meet environmental targets, to foster a positive internal working culture, and to maximise opportunities for local employment. Community engagement work includes supporting the Bounce Back programme to help ex-offenders enter the construction sector, in addition to supporting local schools and nurseries and mental health charity Mind. The team has also been particularly active in promoting construction careers, attending local job fairs and visiting local schools to provide educational talks. We are committed to contributing positively to the communities where we operate and CCS is an excellent framework to measure and track our impact. Well done to the Hammersmith team! #loveconstruction #considerateconstructors #socialvalue #fullmarks Dominus Whitby Wood EDC - Engineering Design Consultants Axiom Architects LLP joe mccluskey Lorraine Dawe
