AHMM Review of the Year 2024 As 2024 draws to a close, we’ve taken a look back at another year of practice – AHMM’s 35th. The tentative emergence of a more positive outlook in the construction industry, along with a steady year of consolidation for our practice, has given us a renewed sense of stability and cautious optimism. The ongoing challenges of global events combined with the climate and biodiversity emergency give us an ever-greater focus for our work to design and operate responsibly and sustainably; to deliver lasting, flexible buildings; and, where we can, to use our skills and resources to make a positive impact beyond our architectural work.

Transforming a long vacant site adjacent to the city’s inner circuit road and William Jessop’s Floating Harbour, the Assembly Bristol campus is anchored around a waterfront park, creating a new city place that positively engages with the city, brings colour to the skyline and links the waterside with a restored historic street, Cheese Lane. A hierarchy of three buildings shape the space and frame a connecting vista from Pip and Jay Church to the waters edge. These three buildings unify the campus whilst possessing a distinct character of their own.

Arthur Stanley House took home the Refurb Project Award at last night's AJ Architecture Awards. The existing 1960's block in Fitzrovia, central London, has been reinvented, providing refurbished offices spaces, creating new office space at upper levels with views over London, and introducing a residential building. The awards jury was 'impressed by how the original modernist design ethos provided a jumping-off point for the refurbishment and the evident care and subtlety with which the new additions were integrated.’ Find out more about the project: https://lnkd.in/ezRFqZa8 Architects’ Journal #AJArchitectureAwards #Refurb Westbrook Partners Heyne Tillett Steel

NEWS: Saffron Hill receives planning permission AHMM proposals for a new environmentally ambitious office building, to replace a multi-storey NCP car park on Saffron Hill, have been approved by Camden’s Planning Committee. Working with our clients, Saffron Hill Investment Holdings, and advice from our in-house Sustainability team, the design proposals retain and re-use the foundations of the car park, as well as adopting a ‘long-life loose-fit low-carbon’ approach, to regenerate an under-used site in Hatton Garden.

Gino Spocchia at the Architects’ Journal has written about AHMM's new carbon report in which we share our operational emissions and the upfront emissions of our projects. Craig Robertson, Head of Sustainability at AHMM, said: ‘These figures show that AHMM is on track to deliver against our operational and project carbon reduction commitments. However, we cannot be complacent. The balance of our operational emissions needs to be carefully monitored, particularly as our studio events programme is re-established. Similarly, our design decisions will continue to be closely reviewed and interrogated using our in-house tools to ensure that we are driving robust low-carbon decisions.’ Read the AJ article here: https://lnkd.in/enmKiC_C Download our Carbon Emissions Report here: https://lnkd.in/e4BY-wAr #Carbon #Emissions #Data

The Norton Folgate had a lot to celebrate at last night's Brick Awards! The project was named the Supreme Award winner, won the Urban Regeneration category, and was Commended in the Refurbishment category. Brick, chosen for its robustness, quality and appropriateness to the Elder Street Conservation Area’s character, was the material of choice for the majority of the refurbishment, restoration, extension, remodelling and façade retention of the buildings in this historical site in London.

AHMM has been named in Forbes' inaugural America’s Top 200 Residential Architects list. Conceived as a new platform for clients and architects to connect, this list celebrates architects who show commitment to enlightened living in their design, assembling a regionally diverse advisory board of leading experts on the American House. Using a singularly rigorous methodology and system of evaluation, Forbes has formulated an architects list unprecedented in its scope and diligence, representing firms in 42 states plus the District of Columbia. These are the nation’s finest practitioners of the creation of ‘home’. See the full list here: https://lnkd.in/g_KwGN5W AHMM’s Oklahoma City office has played a pivotal role in helping usher in a new era of architectural led design and environmental responsibility in Oklahoma City’s built environment. The recently completed Cumberland Court House, our featured project on the list, is a private home for a family of four in a newly developed section of the 1930s-era master-planned garden community of Nichols Hills, Oklahoma. The house, with its casual nod to Tudor Revival styling on its exteriors, its passive-solar-oriented courtyard plan and its high environmental-performance, acknowledges the neighbourhood’s mandatory adherence to an historical architectural style. It expresses contemporary open-plan living, whilst being aware and respectful of its surroundings.
