Old Ford Road II

With its uninterrupted views across Union Street Canal and Victoria Park, this light-filled two-bedroom apartment cuts a striking profile on Old Ford Road in Bow. Recipient of the Housing Design Award, the scheme was designed by PH+ Architects in 2020. Defined by its rhythmic forms and a red brick gabled façade, the building was inspired by the industrial wharf warehouses of the surrounding vernacular. Balconies on each floor ensure constant dialogue with the outside, while a roof terrace presents a breathtaking vista. The apartment is positioned a short walk from the popular Victoria Park Village, with its plethora of independent shops, cafés and restaurants.
