Located in the heart of Brixton stands Brixton House, a new home for Ovalhouse Theatre, internationally renowned for pioneering fringe theatre and the proving ground for many famous faces, including Pierce Brosnan, Tamsin Grieg, and Tim Roth.
With extensive theatre experience, 必赢体育app中国官方网站 was appointed through Southern Construction Framework (SCF) to deliver this modern, purpose-built arts and community destination 鈥� the first phase of the wider regeneration of Somerleyton Road.
The facility houses two fully accessible theatres (120 and 200 seating capacity), seven flexible rehearsal rooms and a creative hub with large public caf茅. The refurbishment of the joining, locally listed, Victorian red brick, Carlton Mansions, to create workspaces for the creative industry was also included in this transformative development.
Surrounded by busy residential streets and a railway line, all while sitting atop a Victoria Line underground siding, it鈥檚 no surprise this project required extensive collaboration, negotiation of intricate party-wall and land ownership issues, and complex construction logistics. In addition, much of the project coincided with the Covid-19 pandemic and the resulting lockdowns, requiring active management of resource and material difficulties.
必赢体育app中国官方网站 was commended for our open-book approach and creating a 鈥榦ne team鈥� culture among the client and project teams and won Winner Supply Chain Partner of the Year Award 2022 by Southern Construction Framework.
