HACKNEY HOUSE.
Situated at the end of a row of Georgian terrace houses, Hackney House is a meticulously designed project inspired by the historical context of its location. Extensive site and historical research informed a design that harmonizes with the local aesthetic while meeting the client's needs and planning requirements.
Collaborating closely with the client, we created a building that mimics the tradition of a pub at the end of a Georgian terrace. The design features mirrored window and door heights, along with stone detailing at the sill and cornice levels, reflecting the form and detail of the adjacent terrace houses.
By deliberately imitating the symmetry and structure of the surrounding buildings, yet stripping back vernacular details such as mouldings and window glazing bars, Hackney House achieves a modern look that respectfully nods to its historical surroundings. The result is a distinctive building that stands out with its contemporary approach while honoring the architectural heritage of the area.
