The month of March sees the green light for Clarion’s £1bn Merton regeneration plans. The association plans for a £1bn residential-led transformation to South London’s Borough of Merton which will deliver over 2,800 new homes across three neighborhoods. I feel this will have a great impact on the economy in this area with the project including space for retail, leisure, office, work, and community space whilst also creating over 700 construction jobs in the process. As I am sure everyone will be aware the main topic of conversation over the past couple of months has been focused around Carillion and this month it seems things have taken another turn for the construction giant after it was revealed that the company paid more than £6m to City advisers just one day after asking the Government for a £10m taxpayer-backed loan. After discussing the ups and downs of this ever-changing industry we move on to issue 9 of Refurbishment & Restore. We have a superb case study from Windust Architect on their Carlton Terrace Project. The owners of the terrace asked for a break from the past. They looked forward to new spaces filled with natural light, all year round living and the ability to connect visually with their surroundings. To see more of this lovely article, turn to pages 6-9. Studio Designer James Sayer T: 01304 806039 E: [email protected] On pages 60-62 we have a superb feature from the newly shortlisted bd Architect of the year Stiff + Trevillion. The River Building project is a two- storey structure bridging the landmark towers of Cannon Street Station. Originally constructed as part of Cannon Bridge House. This project was a challenging one for the team at Stiff + Trevillion and is definitely worth a read.
