Cayford was appointed to lead the redesign and delivery of this five-storey mixed-use new-build development. The work was required due to a planning enforcement notice being issued, as the partial on-site construction had deviated from the original 2007 planning approval obtained by ibla. Cayford secured a new planning consent, revising both the façade and internal layouts, and provided full detailed construction information. The project was developed in 3D using Revit and delivered in accordance with BIM protocols. The scheme required significant demolition and reconstruction to bring the building into compliance. It comprises 11 residential units designed to meet London Plan standards, with a strong focus on environmental performance, targeting near-Passivhaus levels of sustainability. The ground & basement restaurant and retail unit involved major upgrades to the structure and building services. Cayford coordinated the full design team and acted as both Contract Administrator and Principal Designer.
