As part of the wider delivery of Royal Wharf, one of the capital’s most significant regeneration projects, we were appointed as Executive Architect for a neighbourhood of 98 terraced townhouses. Arranged around a series of private courtyards, the homes contribute to a broader vision for a vibrant, mixed-use community.

Working from a planning-approved concept by Fielden Clegg Bradley Architects and Glenn Howells Architects, we developed the design and led consultant coordination to deliver a high-quality residential offer. The homes range from three to four storeys, providing generous three- and four-bedroom layouts designed for modern urban living.

We focused on improving buildability and efficiency while maintaining the integrity of the approved design. By rationalising the underground parking strategy and refining construction details, we unlocked significant cost savings for the client.

Working to a demanding programme, we adopted a digitally-led approach to delivery. Through BIM coordination and detailed construction sequencing, we supported the use of an offsite timber frame system—enabling the first 68 townhouse frames to be manufactured, delivered, and erected on site in just four months.

The townhouses were among the first homes to be completed and occupied at Royal Wharf, playing a key role in establishing the quality, pace, and approach to delivery across the wider development. Their early success helped de-risk subsequent phases, demonstrating the effectiveness of a coordinated, digitally-enabled construction strategy.

Today, they provide high-quality family homes within a growing riverside neighbourhood, contributing to the character and long-term success of the masterplan.
