Brewery Square, Clerkenwell, London EC1

Autor tekstu: Chris Hodson

Brewery Square is a development on the site of the old Allied Brewery and consists of four residential blocks, each sitting over ground floor retail units. The five storey block facing onto St John Street is clad with pre-patinated rainscreen panels, all based on a 600mm module and full storey height.


 

The copper cladding is punctuated at irregular intervals by full-height windows and fully glazed boxes cantilever out from the building over the street below.

The architect judges chose this project for its dramatic massing combined with a rigorous elevational treatment. The architects have been successful in their aims of creating a new landmark for Clerkenwell and of generating the impression of a copper-clad industrial building with glass boxes driving through from within. The building is thoroughly modern but respects its context, particularly the adjacent 'listed' brick Brewery building.

This building was judged the Winner in the Architectural Design category of the Copper in Architecture Awards 11.
