Residential and retail complex located in London, United Kingdom.
Featured in Richard Rogers's definitive monograph, Richard Rogers: Complete Works.
Visitor Guide
Don’t loiter at entrances—this is private. View it as a streetscape lesson: look for how it frames glimpses between Knightsbridge and Hyde Park.
From the Hyde Park side where the building aligns with greenery; shoot early morning for fewer cars and cleaner reflections.
Private residential complex with some ground-floor retail; no general public interior access beyond shops.
The project’s real ‘public’ move is the glazed circulation cores—Rogers turns vertical movement into a lantern-like edge condition.

Design & Structure
High-end residential with RSHP’s precision: modular planning, façade rigor, and careful transparency gradients. Not parametric in form, but optimized in envelope performance and views.
Glass-heavy envelope with high-quality metal detailing—materials chosen to maximize views and signal technical refinement.
Not about heroic spans—about stiffness, acoustic isolation, and high-performance envelope detailing in a dense urban site.
