10 HANOVER STREET, LONDON W1 SQUIRE AND PARTNERS

摘要

This new, slender residential building by Squire and Partners features full-height, bespoke perforated shutters. The building forms part of a mixed-use development, which also provides a new office building as well as the Hus Gallery for contemporary art. From 1800 to 1930 Hanover Street was the home of military tailoring, which influenced the design and detail of the building. A chevron motif used to perforate the facade is abstracted from military insignia and combined with traditional military colours.
