Marylebone is known for its rich architectural heritage. Depending on the building’s historical significance, special care must be taken to preserve and highlight original features while seamlessly integrating modern amenities and design elements. The full refurbishment of a concrete frame building in Marylebone London, involved a blend of modern sophistication, historical preservation, and sustainable innovation The first phase involves carefully demolishing and stripping out the interior components of the building while preserving the structural integrity of the concrete frame. This process involved removing non-load-bearing walls, outdated mechanical and electrical systems, and all other elements that did not align with the new design vision. Sustainability is our key focus in modern architecture, especially in a city like London. The refurbishment project included a waterproof tanking system to the basement and incorporated full M&E, new water supplies into the building. Finishing the project with contemporary designs and colours to bring back to life this beautiful building.
