2023 Canterbury Architecture Awards Winner
The MED Building
It’s wonderful to see our old buildings retained and given new life. This bold example of adaptive reuse has taken an under-loved Art Deco industrial building and turned it into a fun-filled retail and workspace. The interiors make the most of the raw, industrial structure and machinery. The way the building has been laid out means that each workspace is entirely unique in its spatial experience, with great use of the building’s old elements. The exterior has been lovingly repaired and restored, with bright new colours giving a fresh appearance. Minimal entrances puncture the solid form, allowing it to activate the street frontage.
