The London Animal Hospital Completed

Alma-nac have recently completed the The London Animal Hospital (TLAH); the first of its kind in central London offering around the clock care and emergency services to all pets. Alma-nac were commissioned by the TLAH to create a sector leading facility that would provide the best possible care for its patients while creating a relaxing environment for the owners and exemplar facilities for the staff.

Alma-nac (working with Constant SD) have won an open competition to design a playhouse for a new Berkeley Development. The competition organised by the Architects Journal, James Hardie and Berkeley asked for an innovative colourful playhouse for children. Alma-nac’s response was to create an upside down house referencing some of the surreal worlds created in children’s stories such as Alice in Wonderland and the Pixar film Up. Its simple concept gives rise to a whole new world. The floor becomes the sky, the roof becomes the floor, enter through the chimney and slide out the door.

Alma-nac is an award-winning RIBA Chartered architecture and design studio, based in central London. Set up by 3 partners in 2009, Alma-nac uses a design process that facilitates innovative, high quality, contextual design across any sector. Specialising in PRS, residential, retrofit, mixed use and arts projects, Alma-nac has worked in 19 London boroughs and across the UK.

A resolution to grant planning permission has been awarded for Make’s striking office building in the heart of the City of London’s insurance district. The 40 Leadenhall Street site – also known as the Leadenhall Triangle – is owned by Henderson Global Investors and sits within the City’s dense cluster of tall buildings, defining its easternmost edge.

The scheme varies in height, reaching 154m at its highest point, and creates a striking and harmonious composition of shifting rectilinear planes inspired by the early 20th century skyscrapers of Chicago and New York. Formed from a series of stepped vertical ‘slices’, the building terraces down to reduce its profile in response to key vantage points on the skyline, mediating between the scale of the adjacent towers to the north and west, and the lower buildings to the east and south. The tallest and widest ‘slice’ is positioned closest to the centre of the City cluster and steps down towards the River Thames and the Tower of London.

40 Leadenhall Street tower building

All buildings on the site will be demolished, with the exception of the highly ornamental Grade II listed 19-21 Billiter Street, dating from 1865, which will be substantially retained, enhanced and sensitively integrated into the scheme. Over 10,000 people will be accommodated in the building on completion, which offers a wide variety of floorplates catering for different office occupier requirements in terms of floor size and divisibility. Over 14% of the site outside of the building footprint will become publicly accessible space; the ground floor double-height entrance lobby and retail entrances are set back to create generous pedestrian zones and active street frontages to most of the perimeter.
