About this Event
Join City Architecture Forum for an architect-led tour of Angel Square, a major mixed-use development by Tishman Speyer, designed by AHMM, that reimagines a prominent corner site in Islington. Built over Angel tube station incorporating retained structure, the scheme demonstrates how complex conditions produce opportunities for reinvention and activation.
The scheme, engineered by AKT-II, unites three former PoMo office buildings in a cohesive 187,400 sq ft workplace, anchored by a permeable, active ground floor. A repositioned public house, a new civic-scale lobby onto Islington High Street and direct access to Angel station generate a new relationship between building, street and city.
Attendees will gain first-hand insight into the design and delivery of a complex retrofit-led scheme, including:
- Grand lobby and arrival sequence
- Typical office floorplate
- Common parts and circulation spaces
- Roof terraces
- Cycle facilities
- Newly created public realm
