Cat A&B Installation Case Study

Client: Amazon Property | Contract Value: Circa £0.6M | Project Manager: Adam Mulley | Site Manager: Brin Taylor


 

Scope of work:

Raccord successfully tendered this Grade 1 listed building comprising of apartments and nine Garden Villas set behind an elegant façade in the eastern part of a crescent, originally designed by John Nash in 1820 which remains London's only Royal crescent. We are currently negotiating the second phase members club at the exclusive residence.

The development includes lateral, mezzanine and duplex apartments fronting onto eight acres of magnificent private resident’s gardens and the 410 acres of Regent’s Park. The exciting and bold vision to carefully convert and meticulously restore the Royal crescent back into its original role as one of London’s most prestigious residential addresses was a fantastic opportunity for Raccord to showcase the varied and diverse skillset we have.

With apartments boasting large lateral living spaces, generous ceiling heights and state of the art specification and technology, this project was managed day to day by Brin Taylor who personally oversaw the installation of over 90,000 meters of control cabling - making these apartments some of the most cutting edge in electrical design in the capital.  

 

 

Key challenges 

We are used to working to tight tolerances and with clients who expect perfection and this project was no different. With an architectural tolerance of two millimetres throughout, this meant there was no room for error in setting out and installing. Brin and the team managed to complete this production successfully even with these challenges and we have been approached by the client to negotiate the next stage of the project. Repeat work is a huge part of our business and we take pride in the fact that the majority of our work comes from existing clients.

Brin Taylor “Working on some of London's most impressive properties has been both a rewarding and challenging experience. Knowing that we, as a company are at the top of our field make it worth it’.

 

 
 

A word from the client. . .

 

"Regent’s Crescent is a remarkable scheme that we are proud to be working on. Its unique combination of enchanting and historical importance, outstanding original design, unsurpassed new build quality and remarkable location make it a very rare and special offering for the capital"

CHRIS RICHMOND: HEAD OF SALES - CIT

 

“Luxury property is always defined by its provenance, uniqueness and location. London has many streets, a smaller collection of squares yet it has only one Royal crescent: The Park Crescent. This absolute rareity combined with the exacting quality of the residences, sets this development clearly apart from any other and positions it as one of London’s finest residential developments.”

CHARLES GREGORY: DIRECTOR - AMAZON PROPERTY
