PROTEUS HR rainscreen cladding and SC bespoke balcony and feature walkway cladding, as well as various cappings, window trims and flashings were used in an award-winning £45m mixed use development in Hackney.
Pembury Circus, designed by Fraser Brown MacKenna Architects for Peabody and Bellway Homes, was named Best Mixed Use Development at the 2016 LEAF (Leading European Architecture Forum) Awards.
All the Proteus HR rainscreen cladding panels were manufactured with a galvanised steel PPC finish in Akzo Nobel D2525 Golden Beach and Toleda. These two matt metallic colours were specified because they complemented the buff coloured brickwork.
Proteus manufactured the balcony cladding from 3mm DX51 grade steel to achieve the require balustrade loading, and finished it in Akzo Nobel D2525 PPC Anodic Ice finish.
Simon Fraser, Director at Fraser Brown MacKenna Architects, said: “We are proud to have designed this award winning project which has significantly added to the regeneration of the Pembury Estate. The design response to urban context required a rich mix of materials with the rainscreen cladding and perforated panels, supplied by Proteus, making an important contribution to the desired aesthetic of the scheme.”
All new homes achieve Code for Sustainable Home Level 4. The community centre and commercial space achieve BREEAM Excellent.
