From high quality apartments to low cost housing, we undertake the full range of housing developments.

Modern designs seek to make properties as individual as possible which requires varying floor plate shapes. This makes the integration of the services and structure more complex and calls for good team work and careful co-ordination.

The Phillimores

The Phillimore Hill (West London Project), known as The Phillimores, is a development of 74 high quality residential apartments in an existing 1914 campus building in Kensington for Westcity Wates and Northacre. The construction value was in the region of £50m and the project involved demolition, retained facades, deep underpinning, basement excavation and new construction.

HPM were responsible for all of the structural design including the preliminary design of the temporary works.

Vicarage Gate (in progress)

Vicarage Gate House is a new development of 12 family size apartments on a site formerly occupied by a nursing home. The project, on behalf of Northacre, involves the construction of a deep basement next to adjacent retained buildings in Kensington.

The reinforced concrete building utilises a flat slab construction with a thick transfer slab enabling a different column arrangement between the apartments and the underground car park.

HPM are responsible for all of the structural design.
