We design homes that become the seedbeds of communities. Homes considered from the inside out, in which the needs of people and their neighbourhoods come first - not the tick-boxes on a planning form. Nicolas is HWO's founder, and our authority on all things planning. A leading voice on London's housing crisis, he's designed landmark buildings in the UK, US and Asia. He's also taught architectural design at Greenwich University. Now, he brings this experience to the negotiating table, working closely with clients to develop profitable, sociable residential schemes that see beyond the blind spots of planning regulation.
On Thursday night, Brent Council granted unanimous consent for new 100 homes on a disused site. The buildings, designed by HWO, will deliver over 12,000 sqf of creative spaces and a new canal towpath. Thanks @woolbrogroup for your support and trust.
Delighted to be working with @andrewsissonsc onsulting on a groundbreaking employment study for LB Tower Hamlets. A great opportunity to reinvent London's Industrial buildings for a new economy.
