Overview

Designed by the renowned architects Karakusevic Carson Architects and David Chipperfield Architects, Anthology Hoxton Press is made of two unique hexagonal towers, sat between Shoreditch Park and Regent's Canal. Within the towers will be one, two and three bedroom apartments, including penthouse suites, benefiting from balconies and roof terraces. Supporting it all is dramatically designed ground floor cafe and welcoming communal spaces. 

Opening quotation mark

Anthology is producing a special development of hexagonal twin towers wrapped in a continuous brick facade. It's something we haven't seen before and it's exciting to be part of. The brick detailing is continuous across all vertical and horizontal surfaces creating a complete monolithic finish.

 

In order to achieve this the design team showed a good understanding of warranty requirements engaging with us early on in the design process to work trough bespoke detailing to achieve solutions which satisfy all parties. The build on site is of the highest standards and very impressive.
