WoodBlock House redensification, London
WoodBlock House is designed to meet the needs of a family and utilises timber-based materials in its construction. LENO® cross-laminated timber was used for the load-bearing structure. The advantages of the system include a high degree of prefabrication, consistent build quality, short construction times and a robust construction method. The structure is complemented by reclaimed timber insulation and timber cladding.
The main part of the building faces south and sits above the north-facing studio. Both structures are designed as volumes arranged one above the other: the residential building is clad in coated plywood, whilst the studio has a façade of untreated larch.
