Vauxhall Tower
background and brief
The exceptional location of St George Wharf on the River Thames called for a landmark building to further enhance the new architectural landscape. The regeneration of the site and immediate area is already a demonstration project of practical delivery on a marginal site previously derelict for over 40 years.
The proposal for a striking and elegant tower, which would become Europe's tallest residential building with the highest environmental credentials, will be an iconic building for London.
Vauxhall Tower
design response
The structure aims to be the most environmentally responsible and sustainable tall building of its type, using a series of initiatives to enable just one third of the gas or electricity energy of a comparable building to be used, and to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by between one half and two thirds.
