PROJECT: Clink Street

LOCATION: Southwark, London

DATE: 2000 - 2009

This mixed-use development is designed around the historic remains of the medieval Winchester Palace, which was established on the south bank of the River Thames in the 11th century.

While the river location directed the development of the surroundings into a thriving dock, wharf area and fruit market, the Palace informed the plan of the emerging townscape. Our new scheme engages directly with the historic fabric of the townscape enriching this historic relationship.

The development aims to reinforce the increasing vitality of the area by accommodating restaurants and retail areas at ground level with residential apartments above.
