Description
- -The Design District is part of the Greenwich Peninsula Masterplan consisting of 16 new buildings dedicated to creative industries.
- It is designed with a distinctive street grain, architecture, and urban character.
- The district comprises 16 free-standing buildings composed around five courtyards on a total area of 14000 sq.m.
- Eight architecture firms including 6a Architects, Mole, Architecture 00, Barrozi Veiga, SelgasCano; Assemblage, Adam Khan Architects and David Kohn Architects have designed the buildings, landscape architects Schulze+Grassov have designed the public spaces.
- Each firm was asked to design a pair of buildings independently and "blind" from each other in order to create a "provocative diversity of colour and form" says HNNA.
- The buildings are clustered in four groups of four, each cluster enclosing a coworking yard peculiar to its cluster, with a primary shared courtyard in the center. -Workshops, rooftop terraces , retail design studios would attract visitors and host public events.
