Approach
One operating whole
Not separate units
Design lead
Operator's view
Trade before layout
Shared
Plant and servicing
Planned centrally
01 — Overview
Mixed-use only works when the parts are designed to trade together. This scheme was planned as a single operating entity from the first drawing.
Delivered as one operating whole, rather than as separate units handed to separate operators.
02 — The position
A scheme where retail, food and beverage and public realm sit against each other, and where separate design packages would have produced separate, competing operations.
03 — What we did
Set servicing, waste, plant and deliveries as scheme-wide decisions rather than unit-by-unit ones, so that no tenant inherited a problem created by the drawing next to theirs.
Planned the public realm as trading space — where people stop, sit and spend — instead of as the area left over between buildings.
04 — The outcome
Delivered as one operating whole, with the ground floor working as a destination rather than as a row of independent lettings.
