  • Making a Home in Silvertown – Transcript
    Making a Home in Silvertown – Transcript PART 1 Hello everyone, and welcome to ‘Making a Home in Silvertown’, a guided walk in association with Newham Heritage Festival and the Access and Engagement team at Birkbeck, University of London. My name’s Matt, and I’m your tour guide for this sequence of three videos that lead you on a historic guided walk around Silvertown, one of East London’s most dynamic neighbourhoods. Silvertown is part of London’s Docklands, in the London Borough of Newham. The area’s history has been shaped by the River Thames, the Docks, and the unrivalled variety of shipping, cargoes and travellers that passed through the Port of London. The walk focuses on the many people from around the country and around the world who have made their homes here, and how residents have coped with the sometimes challenging conditions in the area. It will include plenty of historical images from Newham’s archives. There’s always more to explore about this unique part of London, and I hope these videos inspire you to explore further. The reason why this walk is online, instead of me leading you around Silvertown in person, is that as we record this, the U.K. has some restrictions on movement and public assembly due to the pandemic of COVID-19, or Coronavirus. So the idea is that you can download these videos onto a device and follow their route around the area, pausing them where necessary. The videos are intended to be modular, each beginning and ending at one of the local Docklands Light Railway stations.

  • The Role and Value of Design Working Paper: Measuring and Defining Design
    economic research & business intelligence The role and value of design Working paper: Measuring and defining design Prepared by TBR’s Creative and Cultural Team 05 August 2015 Introduction 1. Introduction Currently celebrating its 70th anniversary, Design Council is at the forefront of championing the role and importance of design. Following the launch of the Design Economy series, Design Council asks: “In an age of austerity, rising inequality, urbanisation and ageing populations, climate change, the redefinition of the role of the state, big data and ubiquitous surveillance, how are we, as a society, to assess the risks and opportunities found in design’s ascendency?” Design Council News 27th April 20151 Research is a key aspect of this. In the context of recent updates to the Department for Culture, Media and Sport’s (DCMS) Creative Industries Economic Estimates2 and detailed sub-sector reports on economic impact across other aspects of the creative industries, Design Council has identified the need to update, and expand upon, its 2005, 2008 and 2010 industry research in order articulate a robust and complete picture of the value of design. To this end, TBR has been commissioned to undertake research to measure the economic impact of design in the UK economy. 1.1 Aim and core research questions The aim of this research is to articulate the value of and investment in design in the UK. This will be done by assessing the contribution of design to the UK economy, including gross value added (GVA), productivity, turnover, employment and exports of goods and services. Further specific aims include focussing on the contribution of micro-businesses, the value of design across sectors, and a regional breakdown of the design sector.

  • For Immediate Release – 11 December 2019
    For immediate release – 11 December 2019 Green light for new homes and commercial development at Silvertown Quays Plans for a major regeneration of Silvertown Quays in east London have been given the go ahead. Detailed planning permission has been granted for the first phase of redevelopment of the site, which will include refurbishment of the landmark but currently derelict Millennium Mills building. Silvertown Quays is a swathe of land bordering the Royal Victoria Dock and close to Thames Barrier Park. When redevelopment of the site is complete Silvertown will provide thousands of new homes and non-residential space including commercial, brand, retail, hotel and community use. The finished scheme is also expected to generate thousands of jobs and make a key contribution to the continuing regeneration of an important part of east London. Silvertown Quays is able to boast a rich industrial heritage as it formed part of London’s main docks during the first half of the 20th century. Phase one of the redevelopment includes refurbishment of the Millennium Mills, a derelict and imposing flour mill that has not been in use since the 1980s. The site is also home to Silo D, a Grade II listed, modernist and reinforced concrete grain silo, which dates from the 1920s and will also become a focal point of the new development. Plans for phase one of the scheme include circa. 1,000 new homes and have now been signed off by the Borough of Newham. Those plans were put together by Lendlease and Starwood Capital, working in a joint venture as The Silvertown Partnership.

  • PL Brickhouse Brochure.Pdf
    Brick House 03 Introducing brick house When you’re creating a new neighbourhood, variety is key. You need to fight uniformity and introduce varied, interesting home styles, so every street has its own distinctive character. One of the ways we’re doing this at Port Loop is to introduce special edition homes called Brick House. The Brick House homes in Phase 1b have modern brick exteriors and architect-planned layouts. They’re built around the same key principles that informed the popular Town Houses: light, space and high quality design. Brick House was created specifically for Port Loop by Places for People and Urban Splash, working with local architecture heroes Glenn Howells Architects. 04 05 Brick is beautiful 06 07 Brick House Type 03 Second floor master bedroom and en-suite space and light Brick House homes are built around the same bright, open spaces that have made the Town Houses such a success. High ceilings, tall windows and glass doors on the ground floor all flood the homes with light. Upstairs living spaces have Juliet balconies with French doors. Layouts are also open and free-flowing, maximising the feeling of space. 08 09 10 11 Attention to detail Floors are in natural, subtle timber shades with carpets upstairs; fittings are in elegant black and white; and bathrooms and kitchens are clean and modern. These are stylish, understated interiors that let you put your mark on your home. 12 13 Communal green space The homes that make up Phase 1b at Port Loop are built around a landscaped communal garden.
