Projects

Our masterplan for Albion Square won unanimous approval from Hull’s planning committee. Our design includes 226 new homes and a large urban park, providing environmental and wellbeing benefits.

Our plan arranges four mixed-use blocks around the new park, designed to reflect the city’s history and respond to the surrounding context. Low-rise housing will harmonise with the existing Georgian terraces, and the Three Ships—the UK’s largest restored mural—will be returned to its original position.

FaulknerBrowns’ vision for the south Boho site in Middlesbrough will revitalise the area, creating a vibrant space to live, work and enjoy.

The project will provide 340 new homes, a hotel and 13,000 square metres of workspace and hotels. These will be set in the context of public gardens, an orchard and the historic market square.

The new developments will celebrate the site’s rich heritage and natural features while providing a high standard of contemporary living.

Brett Wharf seeks to transform a traditionally industrial part of Gateshead into a thriving cultural destination. The project will provide 262 rental properties, offices, retail space, cafés and restaurants.

Given the site's position among heritage assets, our design seeks to integrate the buildings into the unique fabric of the area. Our design respects the lower pedestrian deck of the High Level Bridge: split over two buildings, the forms rise and fall as they move away from the listed structure.

This five-storey student accommodation building has over 200 rooms, split between studio apartments and en-suites. The ground-floor provides space for study and social interaction, and connects to a central courtyard that is overlooked by the kitchens. The bedrooms are placed around the perimeter of the building to benefit from views, natural light and ventilation.

We employed off-site construction to maximise site development potential and efficiency—the time between construction starting and occupation was just 12 months. The bright aluminium cladding gives a distinctive identity, which is continued internally.

This project involved a £120-million regeneration of residential, office and commercial spaces on Wakefield’s historic waterfront. FaulknerBrowns were chosen to lead this high-value redevelopment after two previous proposals failed. Our plan was differentiated by our strategy to deliver five independent, mixed-use zones—each of which was self-supporting in terms of access, infrastructure, parking and pedestrian connectivity.

The residential component comprises 400 apartments in a mixture of historic industrial structures and new build, with commercial units on the ground floors animating the interconnected courtyards.

The masterplan was sensitive to the history and natural surroundings of the site. We collaborated with conservation architects and David Chipperfield, whose Hepworth Gallery sits on the northern edge of the masterplan. The prominent apartment balconies are constructed from ‘flitched’ timber and steel in reference to the canal-side infrastructure.
