This project was completed for a young creative couple, working in the film industry as a producer and cameraman. The clients had found a site near East Street market in Elephant and Castle, which had previously been used as a store for market carts with only a steel roller shutter as the ground floor façade.
The site was consolidated into a new building with only half of the façade and the flank walls remaining from the entire original structure. The clients were working on a pretty tight budget for a relatively ambitious new build project which required some creative architectural solutions.
