Pearce Leatherworks

Residential development of 126 houses and flats, integrated with listed art deco leather factory premises.

The team developed a high quality design solution for a new residential development parcel within the setting of a Grade II listed art deco building in Northampton, ensuring that the development was sympathetically themed around 1920’s-1930’s architectural style.

In addition, the design team had to design to a high level code of sustainability.

Working closely with the Planning Authority through a detailed series of pre-planning and public consultations we arrived at a design solution developed with a strong urban design led approach.

The buildings have been created to define a series of spaces, and in particular a landmark apartment building provided as a focal point.

Due consideration was given to the setting of a listed building.

Feedback has been positive and the striking architecture with bright well lit interiors well received.
