    HTA’s recently completed Woodside Park for Pocket Living features 86 affordable homes located on a narrow brownfield site beside Woodside Park Station. The scheme offers local people a path to home ownership and is only available to first-time buyers who are living or working in Barnet. The apartments frame a central courtyard and feature exposed brick and concrete stair cores that look out towards surrounding parks. Bordered by Transport for London Northern Line to the east and residential gardens to the west, the courtyard design manages a 3m level change that slopes from north to south across the constrained site. The building’s façade features a hit-and-miss brickwork façade in a double-leaf monk bond pattern, a result of close collaboration between architect, contractor, and façade specialists. The design creates a soft, ecclesiastical quality of light within the communal areas that invites residents to engage with the spaces. Architecturally, the building’s rich red mottled brickwork and detailing echo the character of the adjacent locally listed St Barnabas Church. The uniform unit type lends order across the façade, enhanced by well-proportioned bays, soldier course banding on each level, and projecting header brickwork that adds depth and texture to the top floor. 📷 Kilian O'Sullivan #woodsideparkstation #affordablehousing #design #architecture #brickwork

    HTA worked in close collaboration with Canary Wharf Group, Howells and the wider design team to deliver a ground-breaking new public realm with interconnected pontoons and floating ecology islands within the Grade I listed, 19th-century dock which had been previously inaccessible and inanimate. Eden Dock, a pioneering collaboration with the Eden Project, welcomes visitors right to the water’s edge across generous amphitheatre steps and planted pontoons which connect outdoor rooms. These lead visitors to an open water swimming course located within a spectacular setting that’s bringing nature back to the city. The design introduces floating islands planted with native species—perennials, shrubs, and trees—creating crucial habitats for invertebrates, amphibians, fish, and waterfowl. These buoyant, porous islands allow plant roots to draw nutrients directly from the dock’s water, fostering sustainable growth and enriching biodiversity. Eden Dock forms part of a wider strategy for the greening of Canary Wharf, introducing a biodiverse and people-centred approach to the neighbourhood’s public realm. Reinforcing a nature recovery network across this part of London, a substantial new ‘green spine’ across the Canary Wharf is creating 6 hectares of new and improved green space.

    With the Labour government setting targets to build 300,000 new homes annually, Dr Riette Oosthuizen MRTPI reflects on the welcome changes brought in following the recent consultation on the National Planning Policy Framework.   “The government seems aware that it is essential to create homes where there is infrastructure to support growth. Large suburban extensions without necessary connectivity and social infrastructure are not sustainable, nor will they change behavioural patterns to reduce long-term car use.” Read the full column at Property Week https://lnkd.in/eet7bGCm

    College Road has been shortlisted for the AJ Architecture Awards' Housing Project category. The development provides almost 1000 homes across two towers. Enclave’s 50-story tower provides 817 co-living apartments, the first of its kind approved by the GLA, alongside an additional 35-story tower offering 120 affordable homes. The building emphasises community with a range of amenity spaces designed by TiggColl, including a spa, gym, cinema, and co-working areas. A collaborative effort by HTA, Tide, and Vision, the project boasts Europe's tallest residential volumetric tower at 163 meters. The façade design was inspired by the adjacent NLA Building, a mid-century icon designed by Richard Seiferts. The project provides additional public realm with a colonnade that will connect to the emerging cultural quarter, creating an uplifting new landscaped route.

    Yesterday our Founder & Chairman John Fleming shared an insightful presentation on the power of #Volumetric development at the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) #neworrenew Conference. Nick Hillard followed to discuss #sustainability and the range of diverse #ESG factors that should be considered in development, and demonstrated how volumetric delivery is, in some cases, saving 45% of total #embodiedcarbon. Finally, Simon Bayliss, Managing Partner at HTA Design LLP shared a scintillating presentation showing how #architects work with developers, and the wider industry, to provide high quality, desirable skyscrapers that will last the test of time. Hosted at the incredible Barbican Centre the session sparked some interesting debates on the viability and potential of Volumetric delivery. Thank you for all those that attended the session. We're looking forward to an exciting rest of the week with #CTBUH
