London Fire Brigade Former HQ
Type of project: Residential
Our company was tasked with supplying artificial green walls for the redevelopment project at the former headquarters of the London Fire Brigade.
London HQ to New Build Apartments
The project aimed to transform the space into a collection of new build and period conversion studio, 1, 2, and 3 bedroom apartments, and duplexes.
ChallengeHeritage Preservation
As the project involved outdoor installation in London, where the weather can be unpredictable, selecting products that could withstand UV exposure and harsh weather conditions was crucial. Preserving the heritage of the location while incorporating modern design elements also posed significant challenges.
SolutionDurability and Compliance
We carefully selected artificial green wall products that were UV and inherently flame retardant, ensuring durability and compliance with safety standards. The decision to use products specifically designed for outdoor use in urban environments like our Milan and Rome panels ensured longevity and minimal maintenance. Working closely with William Rose of Stent Projects, Stuart Allington of Urbanwise Developments, and Steve Clarke of Altered Nation Design, we integrated our products seamlessly into their designs, preserving the heritage of the location while adding a touch of modernity. Our team implemented stringent quality control measures to ensure that the selected products met the highest standards of fire safety and durability, guaranteeing that they would last the test of time and contribute to the overall success of the project. This collaborative effort resulted in the successful installation of artificial green walls that not only enhanced the aesthetic appeal of the redevelopment project but also contributed to sustainability and environmental consciousness.
