Notcutt House

Southwark

Carpenter's Road Properties

2014

By celebrating the historic character of an unloved Southwark warehouse building, we have given it renewed relevance to contemporary tenants.

Southwark Bridge Road is lined with buildings of a mixture of ages and histories. Notcutt House is typical: a former warehouse converted to office use, now looking increasingly dated among its more polished neighbours.

Our refurbishment began by uncovering traces of the building’s industrial past, and using these as inspiration for new finishes. The original fabric of the warehouse – iron columns and a pitched timber roof structure – has now been revealed to give the spaces renewed character.
