The east London development brings together 175 homes and 2,250m2  of light industrial workspace as part of a wider regeneration strategy backed by the LLDC

A mixed-use industrial and residential scheme by dRMM in Hackney Wick brings together 175 homes and 2,250m2 of light industrial and creative workspace. The Wick Lane development forms part of a broader regeneration programme supported by the London Legacy Development Corporation (LLDC), which aims to retain employment space while delivering new housing.

The project, delivered for Taylor Wimpey, is situated between Strategic Industrial Land to the south and the Fish Island Conservation Area to the north.

According to dRMM, the design seeks to avoid a conventional “beds above sheds” model, instead proposing a co-location strategy in which commercial and residential uses are integrated across the site.
