Cruickshank Street House
Two houses, described by committee members as ‘uncompromisingly contemporary’, sited in the New River Conservation Area. The house facing Cruickshank Street is formed of two interlocking volumes.

One is faced in render and the other constructed using hand cut slate bricks. The second house, discretely set back from the street and surrounded by Sycamore trees, replaces an existing derelict building.

Tasou Associates is a RIBA‑chartered architecture and design studio based in Clerkenwell, London, United Kingdom. Founded in 1988 by Tom and Paul Tasou, the practice has been designing built work for over three decades, working across private residential, housing, commercial and mixed‑use projects.

The studio adopts a fabric‑first approach, prioritising sustainability, energy efficiency and material performance in its designs. This includes engagement with standards such as Passivhaus, EnerPHit and BREEAM, and careful consideration of both operational energy use and embodied carbon in materials, aiming to create buildings that are comfortable and healthy throughout the year.

Notable projects by the practice include innovative residential schemes such as Canal House along Regent’s Canal, which carefully responds to its waterside context with angled walls and robust brickwork, and Chadwell Mews, a subtle infill residential development integrating sunken courtyards and high‑quality detailing. These projects illustrate Tasou’s commitment to context‑driven design and spatial quality.
