This is the exterior of an apartment building on the edge of Oxford, taken in my role of in-house photographer for Riach Architects. Recently the building won an Oxford Preservation Trust Environmental Award.

 

I've posted some photos of this before but I've been back since and got some better lighting on this side of the building and some more of the landscaping has been carried out.

Rustic Multi Tonal Zinc features a hand-developed patina combining cool blue-grey undertones with warm brown and bronze variation. The layered surface creates depth and natural movement, giving each sheet a unique weathered character while retaining zinc’s subtle metallic base.

 

Typically specified for interior architectural applications, this finish is sealed to stabilise colour and enhance durability. Suitable for feature walls, reception counters, bar fronts, bespoke furniture panels and decorative cladding.

Fraser Brown MacKenna Architects have won planning permission for a development of 234 student rooms and a nursery in a sensitive location on the edge of two conservation areas in Hammersmith. The site on Paddenswick Road lies within the mainly residential Ravenscourt Park area of Hammersmith and adjoins two conservation areas. The existing building dates from the early twentieth century and was used as a police section house until 1996 and since that time as a hostel.

 

Initially a retrofit option was explored, however the number of internal level changes would be costly to resolve and the poor thermal quality of the building envelope meant retaining the façade was unviable. It was decided that in the long-term, the more sustainable option would be to redevelop the site; however the existing buildings remained a key design driver.

    

Ravenscourt House provided an obvious starting point; the volume and articulation of the hostel was an established and admired feature of the townscape and while the façade could not be retained, we were keen to carry through the relevant and positive attributes to inform the language of the new buildings, particularly through the detailing of the brickwork.

 

Our proposals are arranged into three volumes of reducing height, the tallest on the principal frontage to Paddenswick Road, linked together at ground floor level. This simplified plan responds to the surrounding grain and creates a slender profile to each of the buildings, with landscaped courtyards between that enhance views and maximize natural light. Whilst the overall height of the new building is lower than the existing hostel, the new development offers more accommodation; 234 self-contained studio bedrooms together with communal facilities and a nursery for the adjoining John Betts Primary School.

  

The design of the new buildings is a contextual response. We developed an architectural language that draws on recognizable characteristics of the surrounding Victorian and Edwardian buildings but does not seek to imitate particular styles. Brick is the principal material, with changes in tone and different bonds used to create subtle variations between the three volumes.

 

The principal frontage to Paddenswick Road is the most dynamic. A white ground floor plinth gives way to three floors of highly modelled brickwork with projected headers within the Flemish Bond. This energy is enhanced through chamfered window surrounds and two storey projecting bays. The double height windows provide a strong vertical emphasis; an echo of the former Section House. The fourth and fifth storeys are less heavily modelled and capped by a band of intricately detailed brickwork with the headers removed, announcing the material change to the uppermost storeys which are clad in zinc and recessed from the main footprint.

 

The frontage to John Betts Primary School provides a new nursery on the ground floor, accessible from the school grounds; its entrance announced by a slender canopy. Two storeys of highly modelled buff London Stock brick are set under the uppermost storey, clad in zinc – the proportions and material treatment respecting the neighbouring building, a former school house. High level windows allow natural light into the corridors but avoid overlooking the playground.

My first close look at glasgow's new riverside museum. Not overly impressed although I haven't been inside yet.

Zinc cladding over a near by uni building, I like the building, but it does remind me of a tar barrel.

Close-up detail of zinc finished with a bespoke very light patina. This finish is often specified for interiors where a soft, contemporary appearance is required without high reflectivity.

Original living room prior to refurbishment, featuring patterned wallpaper, traditional cabinetry, and a standard fireplace surround. This space was later transformed using bespoke zinc cladding with a very light patina.

Custom fireplace surround clad in lightly patinated zinc. The soft, matte finish introduces subtle texture and tonal variation, creating a refined focal point suitable for domestic living spaces.

Zinc-clad cabinet unit with integrated worktop surface, fabricated and finished by Designs05. The light patina maintains a pale, understated appearance while allowing natural variation to remain visible.

Close-up view of the zinc-clad fireplace surround and hearth detailing. Fabricated to suit the existing structure, with clean edges and consistent patina across adjacent surfaces.

Bespoke zinc drawer fronts and cabinet panels finished with a very light patina. Designed to integrate seamlessly with existing cabinetry while introducing texture and material depth.

Completed living room interior clad in bespoke zinc panels with a very light hand-applied patina. Cabinet fronts, drawer units, and a custom fireplace surround were designed and fabricated by Designs05 to create a calm, contemporary interior.

Zinc cladding, as offered by Euroclad, provides beauty, durability, and sustainability that is difficult to find within the construction industry. Long-lasting performance, low maintenance requirements, and environmentally friendly properties make it a great option for a variety of applications in building. Euroclad's innovative zinc cladding systems bring out the ageless qualities of the material and blend it with modern designs and manufacturing, providing top quality results in meeting both the architect and the owner's expectations. With its aesthetic value, strength, and sustainability, zinc cladding from Euroclad is set to represent the future of modern building design and will likely be at the forefront of architecture in years to come.
