Investigating adaptive reuse, the first objective was to retain the existing building where possible and only demolish materials where necessary for the proposal’s connection points, which tessellate onto the first floor and roof. This creates a low carbon composition of timber framing, parquet flooring, existing 1950s festival brick walls and recycled woodchip and plaster interiors. Tiled walls reflect sunlight into the lower north-facing interior spaces, leading to a generous roof terrace offering a rare long-distance view over south London.
