Kinning Park
RMJM is currently delivering a landmark 35 unit residential project within
the Kinning Park area of Glasgow, located in an area recently coined 'The
Media Quarter'.

The development boasts: secure parking, home office, ECO homes rating, park views with balconies and top floor apartments with gallery spaces.
The materials chosen seek to respond to the surrounding context in a
contemporary way. The red brick to Lorne Street makes reference to the
nearby warehouses expressing Govan's industrial character. The shiny black
ceramic granite cladding to Brand Street makes reference to the contemporary
riverfront buildings which are injecting life back into the area. A corner
lantern feature provides a landmark by day and night. The inclusion of art
interventions in the public areas will also add to the richness of the
building and the user's experience of it.
The proposals are in the planning process with work due to start on site in
autumn 2005.
