Southwark Council are seeking to appoint a new architect to design the proposed new council homes on the Southampton Way Estate. The council is looking for an architect who demonstrates excellence in both architectural quality and resident engagement.
We invited a range of high-quality architecture practices to submit expressions of interest for this work.
We believe that residents will bring a unique and vital perspective to the interview process, and so a member of the Southampton Way Estate Tenant and Residents Association have been asked to participate in the interview process.
The project team will hold interviews with the architects on Thursday 8 July 2021. We will let you know which practice has been successful.
