Stoke Newington Primary Care Trust – new build development
Client: Renta Properties (UK) Ltd
Status: Developed to Stage D Planning
Part of a regeneration project on a brown field site, the practice is responsible for two key buildings. This proposal is for a 3000sqm, five storey shell and core which has been developed for a Primary Care Trust to provide a variety of health care services for the community.
The ziggurat form of the north elevation to Abney Park Cemetery references the Egyptian revival entrance to the listed park, whilst the use of zinc cladding makes it unobtrusive. In contrast, red tonal chequerboard cladding presents a more exuberant façade on to the high street. The organisation of the coloured panels then deconstructs as they wrap around to the piazza creating an inviting entrance to visitors.
