East Riverside, Greenwich Peninsula

Working within a masterplan

Part of the Greenwich Peninsula Masterplan this mixed tenure residential building provides 300 units and is situated between North Greenwich Station and the Riverboat Pontoon.

A rind of townhouses at street level, with apartment blocks rising to 23 storeys. Roof gardens, raised courtyards and balconies create a range of external spaces from which to enjoy the riverside setting, with landscaping responding to the local environment: a graduated planting scheme leading from the exposed riverside setting to the sheltered courtyard spaces at second level.

The design makes reference to its riverside location, from a colour palette derived from river vessels to the shapes of stacked shipping containers.
