St William Homes LLP
The Brief
Design Deliver Unit were appointed to deliver Phase 4 of this landmark residential and mixed-use project, which was designed by Foster & Partners. It comprises 358 new homes across two residential towers, with shared amenities and commercial space within the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham.
Added Value
The two residential towers measure 28 and 38 storeys, with the taller linked to a seven-storey mixed-use podium. We ensured compliance with building regulations while maintaining the concept architect’s design intent. In addition to rationalising the apartment types and layouts, we worked with the design team to develop a more efficient structural design, refining the core layout to increase apartment sales areas by 4% and enhance amenity spaces.
Technical Challenges
We managed the design development and project submission through the BS Gateway 2 process, achieving this during a period of changes in guidance and regulation.
We worked with the design team and specialist subcontractors to resolve complex interfaces between structure, cladding, balconies, and fire protection, and developed a basement ventilation strategy integrated with the landscape design. The site includes Grade II Listed Gasholder No. 2, the oldest remaining gasholder in the world.
