We are delighted to announce that we have secured a £20m façade contract, successfully negotiated with our key clients, Tide Construction and Vision Modular Systems.
The site, located in Selbourne Road Walthamstow, originally owned by Capital & Regional PLC, has been acquired by Longharbour who appointed Tide and Vision to deliver the scheme comprising two landmark towers of 27 and 34 storeys.
The two towers will house 495 one and two bed apartments, connected at ground floor by an expansive amenity space including reception, concierge, lounge, and café. There is also a resident amenity space at roof level which will include a lounge and shared kitchen for hosting social events with a view!
The façade includes high specification glazed terracotta cladding from NBK, architectural feature metal cladding, and high performance Reynaers windows. Curtain walling forms the main entrance in the ground floor link block.
Commenting on this project win for Century, Design Director Marcin Bara said “we have been working incredibly hard over many months with Tide’s design team and Assael Architecture to achieve design intent, whilst ensuring budget parameters were strictly adhered to. Our teams in pre contract, operations, and design collaborated superbly at all stages.”
Tide Construction will deliver the scheme using its Vision modular system, which allows both companies to fulfil the programme faster, safer, and more sustainably than using traditional methods of construction. As with Tide’s other developments, the carbon emissions of the construction process could be cut down by up to 45% with its innovative technology.
Century Facades is due to commence on site Summer 2023.
