2-4 Kingly Street

The redevelopment of 1-4 Kingly Street and 3 Kingly Court involves the refurbishment and extension of four buildings, with the aim of creating unified, high-quality office spaces on the upper floors while retaining the bar and restaurant uses of the ground floor and basement.

The existing primary street facades were retained as part of the development, helping to preserve the appearance of the Kingly Street frontage and character of the wider Soho Conservation Area. The roof and rear infill extensions provides an uplift in office floor space and improves the overall usability of the upper floors. The extensions created a series of terraces that will act as valuable outdoor amenity spaces for future office users. These elements were sensitively designed to ensure that they would not be visible from street level along both Kingly Street and the Kingly Court passage.

This retrofit represents a forward-thinking approach, blending historical preservation with modern sustainability and energy efficiency practices to create a high-quality mixed-use space in the heart of the Carnaby Estate.
