Shoreditch Village

A 150,000 sq ft mixed-use and public realm scheme at the heart of London’s creative quarter. On one of London's most complex sites, Shoreditch Village creates a significant new public space for Shoreditch which restores lost neighbourhood connections and enhances the area as one of London’s key destinations with a vibrant mix of public, retail, café, restaurant, residential and commercial space. We have worked closely with the London Borough of Hackney on the development of the scheme, for whom it is an opportunity to repair a neglected part of the city.
The key element of the Shoreditch Village masterplan is transforming the space underneath and around the viaduct into a positive public space, enlivened by a new street market of semi-permanent stalls offering an eclectic range of internationally-sourced food. This market is supported by a series of flexible retail spaces, targeted at unusual brands and sub-brands, focused towards the “on-trend” and aspirational culture of Shoreditch.
New contemporary buildings around the public space will reflect the unique character of Shoreditch, creating a sense of place appropriate to the local context. Shoreditch Village imaginatively applies a variety of materials typical of the local area, creating a new urban place that reflects the eclectic character of Shoreditch and draws upon it’s lively and interesting roofscape, through planted rooftop gardens and terraces with views of the bustling streets below.
