FITZROVIA APARTMENTS
MIXED-USE DEVELOPMENT
London, United Kingdom
The second phase of the Fitzrovia Apartments celebrates city living in a mixed-use, high-density urban development. HOK’s “people-first” design integrates amenities that make a neighborhood desirable. The building includes market-rate and affordable housing, contemporary office space, parking and an orthopedic clinic.
The building is arranged around two attractively landscaped courtyards. Its primary facades are composed of Spanish limestone that integrates public art in the form of colored glass fins depicting abstract images. Vertical bay windows fabricated from anodized aluminum and glass accent the building. To reflect the sun and maximize light, elevations overlooking the courtyards are clad in light zinc tiles.
Sustainable design strategies include ground-source heat pumps, biofuel boilers, and green walls and roofs.
