Delivering Fitrovia’s first world class office building. Galostar are proud to deliver the retro fit GRC (Glassfibre Reinforced Concrete) and masonry façade along with new build masonry, pre cast and GRC.

Galostar worked closely with renowned architect’s Allford Hall Monaghan Morris (AHMM) to deliver the design intent on the project inclusive of full GRC, Wet Cast and structural design.

Scope of works:

• new masonry,

• reclaimed brickwork

• Spanish volcanic glazed brickwork.

• restoration to the existing façade

Arthur Stanley House, sees the refurbishment and extension of a 1960s office block in Fitzrovia, central London. Originally designed by TP Bennett Architects, Arthur Stanley House sits within the Charlotte Street conservation area. The building was home to the University College London Hospital Trust until 2005, when the trust relocated; the building has remained empty since.

The existing building has a reinforced concrete frame construction with brickwork elevations and single glazed windows. The current top floor consists of a plant room lined with a prominent loggia (external frame) along the main elevation. The new scheme will refurbish the current brick work, replace the existing windows with new, high quality glazing that meets modern standards and will enhance the elevations. The upper floor plant room and loggia will be replaced with a new office floor plate and a full-length terrace which will improve surrounding townscape by decreasing the perceived height of the building.

A new residential building will be provided comprising ten new residential units organised around a central internal core, with two apartments at each floor. The new residential façade responds to its mews context and improves the western boundary of Tottenham Mews. The proposal will provide two large family size affordable duplexes over the lower two floors, each with their own private access.
