ARCHWAY STUDIOS
Architect: Undercurrent Architects
Location: Camberwell, London
Client: The Modern House
Archway Studios is a live-workspace built in and around a 19th century rail viaduct. The project works with the constraints of an inner-city, industrial site next to a train line, and the challenges of a fortified design that engages its surroundings.
The building’s unique design and appearance helps it to stand out even when dwarfed by inner-city neighbours. As one of 10,000 arches that dissect neighbourhoods across London, it is a model that can be adapted for broad community benefit.
