Ilona Rose House is a
new–build mixed–use project spread over 13 floors, including four below ground.
The project is currently on site and includes lots of highly decorative,
bespoke, Ultra–High–Performance–Concrete façade panels (clipped on to a
standard unitised curtain wall system of course!). We’ve printed
many of the pre-production moulds ourselves, in Leicester Square.
The building’s basement will provide a new home for Warner Brother’s European Post Production Studios and includes a bespoke 60–seat sound editing theatre carved out over two floors of basement.
More than a sixth of the (nearly) one–acre site is given over to public spaces — which are lined with restaurants, cafes, shops and a nightclub to create a lively and generous new destination within Soho.
