REYNAERS BRINGS INNOVATION AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY TO ‘MOST SIGNIFICANT’ LONDON REGENERATION PROJECT

Aluminium window solutions by Reynaers are bringing aesthetically-pleasing designs, innovative structures, strength and optimised energy efficiency to two new residential housing blocks in King’s Cross Central. The new buildings are part of an affordable housing scheme in one of the most significant sites of development and regeneration in Central London.

       
         Kings Cross: Rubicon Court &
        Roseberry Mansion 
Kings Cross: Saxon Court 
Each high-density block’s design includes outdoor communal spaces, roof gardens and balconies to create a sense of community for residents. Rubicon Court by PRP architects was the first completed building, with 117 mixed tenure spaces above approximately 600 m² of street level space for commercial premises and shops. The neighbouring block comprises Saxon Court and Roseberry Mansions by Maccreanor Lavington Architects, a cohesive urban block of 220 homes built around a shared courtyard.

On the site of the former hospital it features Reynaers façade and fenestration systems throughout, contributing to the energy efficiency of this primary and social care facility for Barnet NHS Trust. A new community hospital designed by Murphy Phillips Architects it fully embraces and sets the standard for the new Department of Health guidance for flexible and adaptable healthcare facilities. The layout is based around generic modular clinical rooms and clusters reflecting the Health Building Notes for Primary and Community Care. Developed as part of a health campus, in conjunction with SHINE, the hospital delivers an environmentally responsible and sustainable contribution to the local surroundings and community.
