penton place
This was formerly the site of a pub called 'The Giraffe', so named because it lies close to London's first Zoo and was the location were the public first saw one.
15, 1,2 & 3 bedroom apartments with ground and basement commercial floors were proposed in options in this development appraisal. The pattern of the skin of a giraffe is a natural manifestation of a Voronoi diagram. This mathematical construction was investigated as generator in a buildable form of the plans perimeter enclosure and as a means to maximise the buildings envelope on this irregular site.
