Winning ‘Best New Place to Work’ at the London Planning Awards 2016 and ‘Best New Office Building’ at the New London Architecture Awards 2016, the Roundhouse Office Building in Camden was constructed as part of redevelopment plans.

The five-storey building uses 72 recycled shipping containers to accommodate staff and allow the organisation to develop its artistic activities and expand its programme of traineeships and apprenticeships for young people. The building was a financial success and a further storey was added. Now a 6 storey project of 2400m2.
