41 Bengal Street

An open plan workspace on a single floor of this mixed-use building, the studio encourages collective working and cross-fertilisation of ideas across the many teams in the practice.

The building is on a restricted site in Ancoats, only 11m wide and 60m long, and brings it back into active use.

With offices at ground and first floor level, the upper six floors are a mixture of 1, 2 and 3 bed apartments. There is a differentiation between the two externally with the lower floors having an industrial appearance and the upper floors a lighter rendered façade.
