Creek Road is an exciting retail led development with high quality apartments and mews houses in the centre of Greenwich. The scheme will provide 83 contemporary homes and 1,800 sqm of commercial floor space, reinstating street frontages and extending the town centre’s retail opportunities westwards from Cutty Sark DLR. A number of boutique shops and cafes will occupy the ground floor of the prominent building with high quality residential apartments above. Also regenerating the adjacent Bardsley Lane with contemporary mews houses backing onto St Alfeges Park, the development occupies a prime location in central Greenwich and consists of three pieces which front onto the busy high street, back onto the lovely secluded mews and flank southeast London’s legendary Up The Creek comedy club which will also be improved and extended as part of the development. The scheme is a sympathetic but contemporary response to its historic context and was highly commended at planning committee. Client: Family Mosaic. Architect: bptw partnership. Main Contractor: Bouygues UK

Ibstock Brick is celebrating the success of architects and brick contractors at this year’s Brick Awards.

The annual awards ceremony, organised by the Brick Development Association (BDA), saw three outstanding projects using products from the Ibstock Brick range named as winners, with a further two projects receiving commendations from the expert judging panel. Ibstock Brick also proudly sponsored three awards; Individual Housing Development, Architect’s Choice and Supreme winner.

The Architect’s Choice Award was voted for by the public from a selection of shortlisted projects in other categories. It was awarded to the BPTW Architects designed project at Creek Road in the heart of Greenwich. The project utilised the Funton Old Chelsea Yellow brick to mirror the existing bricks whilst adding a contemporary twist.

Marlborough Primary School (Architect: Dixon Jones) was the winner in the Education category whilst Royal Albert Wharf was the winner in the Large Housing Development category with Blackfriars Circus also picking up a commendation in this category, with both projects being designed by Maccreanor Lavington. Scala Yard (Architect: DLA Design Group) received a commendation in the Small Housing development category.

Anglian Brickwork Ltd, who were the winners of the Specialist Brickwork Contractor award, used Ibstock Bricks in one of their winning projects at the David Attenborough Building (Architect: Nicholas Hare).

Darren Bowkett, Operations Director of Ibstock Brick, commented: “Each year the standard of entries for the Brick Awards improves. As the market leading brick manufacturer we are delighted to be associated with the celebration of brick as a modern building material. We would like to congratulate everybody involved with the award-winning projects for their success in showcasing how brick can be used within creative and contemporary architecture. Ibstock Brick is committed to providing products which offer design flexibility for the most innovative building facades.”
