JTP Projects Day

Published on 6 October 2014

JTP spent Friday out of the studio taking part in the practice's yearly Projects Day - a London wide research project.

We took to the streets of London to investigate the City, and some of the new and interesting developments that have taken place recently. We divided into seven groups, each with a brief to collect information on projects from different areas.

In Central London the team looked at new developments around Oxford Circus, Soho and Trafalgar Square, whilst another group cycled around South West London taking in Victoria, Pimlico and Kensington. We took a good look at the new developments around King's Cross and Regent's Place – whilst two teams went East to Bow, Newham, and Hackney. South of the river, two further groups visited new schemes in Bermondsey & Southwark, and Woolwich, Greenwich and Deptford in South East London.

All groups reported their findings back to the office in the afternoon, followed by a practice dinner at the Goldsmith's Centre in Clerkenwell. A good day and evening was had by all, and we learnt a lot about what is great and not so great about recent development in the city.
