reflecting on 2024: a landmark year for 16a
as we bid farewell to 2024, we take a moment to reflect on a truly remarkable year for our architectural practice. from groundbreaking commercial projects to an array of domestic successes, this year has seen our team push creative boundaries and solidify our presence across the UK. here are some of the highlights that made 2024 so special.
a new vision for liverpool: chinatown hotel:
one of our most ambitious projects this year was submitting the planning and listed building applications for a new hotel in the heart of chinatown, liverpool. this project stands as a testament to our ability to blend contemporary design with heritage sensitivity, paying homage to the rich cultural history of the area while introducing a vibrant, modern hospitality space. we are thrilled to contribute to liverpool’s ongoing urban regeneration and cultural preservation efforts.
reimagining the Heinz factory in wigan
in the industrial heartland of wigan, we were privileged to put forward transformative proposals for the iconic heinz factory. our designs focused on creating improved workplace conditions and fostering a culture of innovation and well-being. this project exemplifies our commitment to enhancing the everyday lives of workers through thoughtful architectural solutions that inspire new behaviours and productivity.
completion of egerton house, birkenhead
one of our most rewarding achievements in 2024 was the completion of egerton house, a transformative renovation of an old dock building in birkenhead. formerly a banana factory, this historic structure now serves as a dynamic office space for small and medium-sized businesses. the project has revitalised the area, blending the building’s industrial heritage with modern functionality. we are immensely proud of the role this project plays in supporting local enterprise and community growth.
bren aud, a dream home by the wirral estuary
the completion of bren aud, a stunning six-bedroom home situated by the estuary on the wirral, marked another milestone for us this year. this bespoke residence harmonises contemporary design with its serene natural surroundings, offering breathtaking views and unparalleled comfort. it’s projects like bren aud that remind us of the profound impact architecture can have on daily life.
domestic designs across the nation
our domestic portfolio flourished this year, thanks in part to a successful marketing campaign leveraging the homebuilding & renovating shows. these events allowed us to connect with homeowners and showcase our expertise, leading to projects spanning the country—from the scenic coastal town of scarborough to the picturesque surroundings of basingstoke in surrey. whether it was a bespoke renovation or a new build, our team’s dedication to delivering tailored solutions shone through in every project.
exciting proposals for homes
2024 also saw the development of innovative new-build designs for one-off homes. highlights include the willows, college lane in formby and another striking proposal in basingstoke, surrey. these designs underscore our passion for creating personalised spaces that reflect the aspirations of their inhabitants while respecting the character of their locations.
looking ahead
as we reflect on the past year, we are filled with gratitude for our clients, collaborators, and team members who have made these achievements possible. 2024 has been a year of growth, creativity, and meaningful contributions to communities across the UK. as we look to 2025, we are excited to build on this momentum and continue delivering exceptional architectural solutions that leave a lasting impact.
here’s to another year of innovation and success!
