MWA have been shortlisted in Dezeen’s Visualisation of the Year Award! Our images have been selected from over 4,700 entries from 87 countries.

MWA have a talented in-house visualisation team that creatively produces 3D models and CGIs as part of our work. The precise representation of form, materials, furniture and even artwork is an integral part of how we design which allows our Clients to visualise our proposals with clarity in three dimensions allowing them to inhabit the scheme from the outset of the design process.

We look forward to the final awards announcement in November and well done to our Visualisation Team lead by our Head of Visual Design Rawan.

Following the successful installation of a unique internal planting scheme including fennel, strawberries, raspberries and an extensive herb garden, Plantworks has finally opened its doors. We are excited to see the ‘first of its kind’ urban farm move from a local nursery to its new home in the heart of King’s Cross. Fresh produce is already thriving at the premises ready for office staff to tend to.

After being approached in early 2016 to prepare proposals for a new-build office space in King’s Cross, MWA are happy to see another project reach practical completion. The project has been an important test case for MWA in the integration of architecture and the environment together, to deliver buildings which aid the well-being of their occupants and the wider urban context. With the current era of ‘working from home’ highlighting the need for nature and biodiversity in our lives, this project will see the implementation of a huge internal planting scheme for the benefit of its occupants. The end result will stand testament to the project having such a courageous and dedicated client team. The internal planting fit-out will complete in July.

MWA are delighted to be working on another project which forms part of a Grade I Listed John Nash terrace in the prestigious Regent’s Park Conservation Area. The property has a rich history and was formerly the home of science fiction novelist H.G. Wells. This is the fifth property to be undertaken by MWA on Regent’s Park in the past two years.

We are working closely with the local planning authority to create a contemporary family home for our Clients, whilst ensuring that the heritage asset is preserved and improved. Proposals include sensitive internal alterations to accommodate a new study, gym, kitchen and breakfast area, along with an exciting new glazed rear extension designed to enhance and reveal the historical features and appearance of the existing property.
