Development Manager Alchemi Group and partner Far East Orchard Limited have teamed up to create the mixed-use, residential-led boutique development - Westminster Fire Station (WFS).
WFS is nominated in the Conservation and Housing categories by the New London Awards 2022.
Located in the heart of Victoria, London, at 4 Greycoat Place, SW1. The project is a careful restoration of the Edwardian, Grade II Listed fire station alongside a new, modern residential building from Openstudio Architects (OSA).
With the concept and interiors driven by Studio L, London (SL) and architecture by Openstudio Architects (OSA), the two collaborated to thoughtfully focus on a peaceful and cohesive marriage between the historic architecture of the Fire Station and the contemporary architecture of the new building coined The “Station House". Both buildings retain their respective eras’ stylistic distinctions whilst mindfully integrating the new architecture and interiors via colour, pattern and finishes. The result is a highly crafted, wholly unique residential development of beautiful materiality, form and function.
In this particular development, each home is unique, ensuring that the apartments are crafted to create thoughtful homes with one-of-a-kind touches and must be seen to be fully appreciated. The beautiful resident’s courtyard, from James Lee Design, unites the two buildings on the ground floor. This lovely shared amenity creates a more intimate and private usable space for the residents.
The unique, show flat interiors from Studio L, London, have been featured in Vogue, Tatler and House & Garden as a “Capital Property” and also featured in “Bricks & Mortar” in The Times, Wallpaper* and most recently in Sheerluxe.
