The City of London Corporation has revealed a new City Skyline CGI and animation showing the development of tall buildings in the City Cluster.
We are proud of 55 Bishopsgate's contribution to this vital part of London's office market, with 1.3 million sq ft of space across 63 storeys. The building will provide 25,000 sq ft of public realm, including a conservatory at the summit with stellar views of London (see image 4).
Sustainable construction is key to the future of our cities, and the buildings location close to Liverpool Street Station supports sustainable travel. Stellar public transport connections really is the key to the successful growth of the City Cluster.

Park & Sayer is a new residential development at the heart of Elephant Park in South London, where the combination of a tower and a lower mansion block both marks where Sayer Street meets the central park, and frames the streets and parkland on all sides 🌲
Contrasting materiality and strong use of colour further enhance the buildings' expression and contributes to a varied townscape.
The residents of Park & Sayer benefit from a variety of services available in the park and especially along the pedestrian Sayer Street, while also being well connected to the rest of London by the Bakerloo and Northern lines, National rail, and a generous bus network 🚇

From building tours, industry debates, awards, and project progress, 2025 has been filled with so much here at AFK. As the year draws to a close, we are grateful for what has been achieved together and look ahead to 2026 with renewed excitement! 💖

Planning approved at Waterbeach!
387 new lakeside homes designed by AFK Studios for Greystar, set within Urban&Civic's emerging Waterbeach community just north of Cambridge.
Four residential buildings, thoughtfully detailed brick façades inspired by the site's former airfield, and a landscape-led neighbourhood opening onto Waterbeach Lake.
Developed alongside HTA Landscape and the wider design team, the scheme brings together architecture, generous green spaces and a new lakeside boardwalk and social plaza.
An exciting milestone for the project and everyone involved. We can't wait to see it take shape!

Floating in a room surrounded by lanterns reminiscent of a starry sky? Yes please!

Two weeks ago we shared a #SketchFriday focused on the podium of a mixed use tower concept, but the transformative thinking didn't stop there!
In this sketch we see the top of the tower providing workspaces flowing around a mix of venues and amenity spaces, with the stand-out element being the state-of-the-art entertainment venue envisioned for the very top of the tower, where performances can be set against wide-reaching views. Imagine the sunset performances!

Chelsea Riverview's gentle curves and facade finish catches the light beautifully in these views captured from the nearby park where its terraces rise confidently, helping the building transition from the low scale of the park to the neighbouring buildings. The massing helps give the park a more open feeling, where the sky can be seen in multiple directions.

For this tall mixed-use tower concept, we designed a varied, public-facing mix of uses to keep the building active day and night, responding to a world where remote working and rising amenity expectations are reshaping what offices need to offer.
This sectional sketch cuts through the podium, where sports, restaurants and retail sit alongside cultural venues, from concert halls to intimate in-the-round theatres, all connected by staircases, voids and a public realm running through the building where people can come for the morning coffee and stay for the evening show.

The Turing Building is designed to activate the public realm at @Stratford_Cross with shops, restaurants and entertainment venues wrapping its base. One standout is the gorgeous Everyman cinema! Vibrant red lights encased in gold lettering mark the exterior, while the entrance is emphasised through the building's massing and façade design. Step inside and the lush Everyman interior fills the foyer, connecting its three screens.

We’re proud to share that Muireann Phillips has been recognised as a Mix 30 under 30 on account of her strong design skills, creative flare, and client trust!
Muireann approaches each project by first understanding the inherent opportunities, before applying her artistic creativity to reimagine it. She leads the redesign of workplace interiors for a global client across London and international sites, developing Built Environment Brand Guidelines that are now shaping projects worldwide. Additionally, her experience spans major mixed-use residential and hospitality developments. Her ability to engage confidently at all levels has made her a key part of project teams and our studio culture more broadly.
Congratulations to Muireann!

Chelsea Riverview negotiates the transition in scale between its neighbours using a series of residential terraces that step down towards the nearby park and housing. The terraces align with the horisontal layers of white, reconstituted stone that make building reminiscent of an ocean liner by the Thames shore.
The river views are fantastic!

We are back with a new #SketchFriday season!
Sometimes we revisit past projects to add some sketches we felt were missing. These two new ones are of the Turing Building! ✏️
The building combines a mixed-use podium including shops, cafes, restaurants, and an Everyman cinema with a 22-storey office building providing sweeping views of the Olympic Park.
A focus in these two sketches is how we positioned the core to the side of the building, creating a broader and open floorplate that allow for one team to spread across and work together in a continuous space of up to 150 people (based on the Dunbar number of meaningful contacts a person can have). This strategy allows for more serendipitous encounters and easier collaboration when the space is shared and you can see each other across the room.
Furthermore, bringing the core to the side allowed us to let lots of calming, natural light into personal care spaces. This forms part of the broader mental wellbeing strategy for the building alongside the availability of break and leisure spaces, avoiding fossil fuels in operation, and multiple green terraces on the podium and roof.
