Castle Acre Water Tower / Tonkin Liu

July 26, 2021 Alexandria Bramley 0

By the ruins of a Castle, a Priory, a city gate, rises one modern anomaly, steadfast against all elements, a relic from the industrial age. A found object, a disused landmark, towering out of shielding trees, loved and unloved by the village of Castle Acre. Restored and reused on a shoe-string budget, Rusty tank a panelled Tudor hall, Hung timber rooms a timber spiral stair. Minimal intervention, purity of structure, Ivy growing, wind blowing a field of barley, Nature returns for the romantic industrial ruin

NAN Residence / FOF Studio

This is an interior refurbishment of a ground floor flat in Bermondsey, London— a grade II-listed, former paper mill, and tannery. The warehouse consists of several original features such as timber beams, brick walls, cast-iron columns, and cast-iron pivoting windows. A young couple had lived in the flat for a year and decided it was time to renovate their home. Their main criteria were simple— to make their home a brighter space, and to have a larger kitchen with a central island.
