10 Trinity Square

10 Trinity Square, the former Port of London Authority and one of London’s most cherished and important buildings, is set to be restored and transformed into a world-class scheme with hotel, spa, restaurant, club and 41 luxury residences, designed by Woods Bagot.

Responding to the brief to restore the original circulation and geometries of this historic Grade II* listed building whilst enhancing the public realm, Woods Bagot’s design includes a modern interpretation of the original 1920’s rotunda designed by Sir Edwin Cooper as the integral part of the vision for the redevelopment.

The internal courtyard space at 10 Trinity Square has been carefully designed to represent an ever-changing and evolving landscape, which plays upon the natural elements of night and day, and utilises the rotunda’s reflective surfaces of glass and water. Its twisted fins are also designed to create an optical illusion, giving shape to its geometric form whilst providing privacy for those hotel rooms overlooking the courtyard and lending a feeling of light and space.

The terrace on its crown will offer a garden, flanked by an infinity-edged water feature – providing an open-air, landscaped space for the public to enjoy.

This architectural masterpiece will be a focal point of the overall scheme and a connective entity joining the first, second and third floors of the surrounding building. The principal tower presiding over the rotunda offers an interesting contrast to the modern elements, and gives reference to the original listed structure of the building.

Planning permission was granted in April 2012 with completion due in 2015.

Status: Committed
Completion Date: 2015
