The building has dedicated communal socialising and study spaces, a retail outlet and bicycle storage.
The development also has a modular theme with a feature precast panel façade, permanent formwork system and POD bathrooms. The original heritage facade was restored and retained for the new development. The innovative volumetric modular construction ensured the success of the project.

What is Volumetric Modular Construction?
Volumetric modular construction is an advanced building method where entire modules are prefabricated off-site and assembled on location. This technique ensures high precision, faster completion, and reduced environmental impact. Used in residential, commercial, and institutional projects, it delivers quality-controlled, cost-effective, and sustainable solutions.
What Are The Benefits Of Volumetric Modular Construction
- Faster Completion – Parallel site preparation and off-site manufacturing reduce timelines by up to 50%.
- Superior Quality Control – Factory production ensures consistency, reducing defects and rework.
- Cost-Efficiency – Optimised material use and reduced labour expenses make budgeting predictable.
- Eco-Friendly Construction – Minimises waste, lowers emissions, and supports green building standards.
- Enhanced Safety – Factory conditions eliminate common on-site hazards and delays.
- Design Flexibility – Customisable to diverse architectural styles and large-scale developments.
