MAA worked closely with Orbital Development throughout the planning process to create a mixed use residential scheme in Tooting, Wandsworth.

The narrow back land site typically offered many design challenges – particularly with the separation distances, privacy and access. These challenges were successfully met with a 10 residential unit scheme with a “gateway” commercial element, leading to a secluded mews environment.

This contemporary take on the mews house terrace has 2-3 bedroom houses with south-facing living areas opening onto urban courtyard gardens.

The proposed scheme (3 - 6 storeys) is a high quality mixed use development which retains the self-storage use on site, and provides a number of small office units and residential apartments on the upper floors.

The provision of PRS residential apartments will enhance the residential diversity of the area, whilst the office and self-storage elements will provide economic benefits and employment opportunities.

The proposal seeks to introduce a more active street frontage and high quality communal amenity spaces, to provide new ecologically soft landscaped and hard paved communal courtyard with seating, planting and naturalistic play space.

A residential lead mixed-use development of a vacant site in the conservation area at the corner of Colehill Lane and Munster Road, Fulham, London. The scheme is comprised of 5 contemporary residential and 2 commercial ground floor units, behind traditionally detailed façades.

MAA were employed to optimise the existing planning permission, develop tender information and deliver the scheme under the Design & Build procurement route.

Ibex House is a Grade II listed office building near the Tower of London and a magnificent example of a Deco building in the “Moderne” style.

MAA were engaged by Dukelease to undertake monitoring services on behalf of the funder through RIBA Works Stages 4 & 5. Primarily reviewing and reporting on the design and build contractors documentation, design submittals, sample and benchmark approval and progress reviews on site.

The 15,000m2 self-storage element is accommodated within 3 basement levels served by a ground level service yard.

The street frontage is occupied by world renowned classic car dealer Joe Macari.

The side street is serviced office space, also operated by Access.

The proposed development is a sensitive use of the site for a mix of leisure, community and low density housing. The site is well served by Chessington South train station and other existing local infrastructure. The mix of residential uses provides family housing, affordable homes and retirement facilities catering for a wide sector of the community.

The building is a bespoke high security storage facility for an art storage company.

The development comprises carefully designed and environment-controlled storage areas, capable of long and short period storage of valuable artwork.

To provide interest, texture and scale the building uses a layered material palette, reminiscent of the existing warehouse fabric.

MAA obtained planning permission for 83 apartments on a 0.2-hectare site which was previously used as a petrol filling station. The building is articulated by vertically expressed fins which frame the primary outlook from each unit and create a distinction between the high and low level building elements.

The scheme achieves 30% affordable housing in a mix of tenures. The design of the taller element has been carefully considered, with high quality materials and articulation providing slender and elegant proportions.

The refurbishment and extension of a three storey Victorian Building of Townscape Merit in Norbiton, including a change of use from Registry Office to apartments. Totalling 1134sqm of residential floor area, the design created 14 apartments - each celebrating the many historic features and quirks of the existing building.

Part of Bracknell’s masterplan for the Warfield extension to provide 2000 new homes. The site had a number of constraints including protected trees, Special Protection Areas and a flood zone from the Bull Brook.

Despite Bracknell’s allocation for residential development the negotiations were extensive and are still ongoing. The main points of discussion being infrastructure and co-ordination with the adjoining sites.

MAA were appointed by Berkeley Urban Developments from feasibility during the bid process through to a detailed Planning submission.

The large site had numerous constraints being located on the edge of Richmond Park within a Conservation Area, with a Building of Townscape Merit, numerous listed trees, adjacent to a nature Conservation Area. The site also straddles the boundary between two London boroughs.

The approved scheme achieves 75 houses, with 7 apartments located within the locally listed Latchmere House.

The regeneration of a previously empty site on King’s Mews, central London. The tight urban site provided plenty of challenges, with the design working to maintain the traditional mews house vernacular of the street, while providing high-quality residential accommodation. The scheme includes six apartments, ranging from one-bedroom to three-bedroom units.

A conversion of a 1980s Panasonic Bracknell Headquarters building including the addition of a full top storey.

The development comprises 10,650 sqm of self-storage, encircled by 4,000 sqm of flexible, lettable office space, and 140 car parking spaces for Access Self Storage and Access Offices.

The offices feature communal meeting rooms and break out spaces.

The construction of a new Access Self-Storage building at Gilette Corner providing self-storage and office space.

The development comprises 11,000 sqm of self-storage, and 900 sqm of flexible, lettable office space.

The building is organised around a slightly taller element which forms a ‘knuckle’ on the road junction, with lower side wings echoing the Art Deco buildings along the Golden Mile. The east facing facade accommodates 3 floors of office space, with the building scale stepping down to 3-4 storeys closest to the residential properties.
