2010 Roses Design Gold Award for Shettleston Housing
Hulley & Kirkwood were delighted to be presented with a Gold Award for Shettleston Housing Association at the Roses Design Awards ceremony in Manchester on 14th October 2010.
Transparency and openness were the key themes in the new Shettleston Housing Association building. The two storey entrance atrium opens the office up to visitors, and the bridge at first floor level not only links the old and new parts of the office but also brings the staff and public areas together. In addition, work areas, meeting rooms, committee rooms and individual offices make extensive use of glass to ensure that no area is closed off from view.
The extension does not seek to mimic the old office, but rather stands alongside it as if it were a separate building. The frame around the roof terrace ensures that the extension has the same scale as the old building. Old and new stand together, linked but still distinct.
The completed building represents the hard work of all parties, Consultants, Contractor and the Client.
Hulley & Kirkwood carried out a complete M&E design for the extended and modernised offices.
