Mulberry Close

A novel airspace project is set to transform three 1930s art deco residences by adding six luxurious penthouse units and a new ground-level villa.

A vast communal area featuring amenities such as a lounge, terrace, and fitness centre enriches the development.

Situated near Stratford International station, its design by Suttonca Limited and Standerwick Land Design aims to inject a vibrant, modern essence into the London streetscape, embracing 'inhabiting the arches' concept and futuristic tower living to enhance Stratford Metropolitan Centre's skyline. Construction is underway, with a focus on creating a welcoming environment through innovative micro-climate modelling.
