The site, situated on a narrow mews off Ridgway, originally comprised two buildings. The first was a two-storey brick structure that had served as a private physiotherapy clinic. This building evolved from a single-storey WW2 bomb shelter, remnants of which were uncovered during construction. Adjacent to it was a single-storey block, similarly clad in brickwork, which had been converted for residential use by the previous owner. Host was tasked with developing proposals which preserved, enhanced, and connected the two existing structures to create a single, unified building. The brief called for spacious, comfortable client areas alongside dedicated staff facilities with a strong emphasis on employee wellbeing.
