Cedars Road Annex for St. Mungo's Association is a "stepping stone" facility
located to the rear of an existing homeless hostel in Clapham. It provides
dayrooms, a kitchen, counselling rooms and studio flats all with south views
across the beautiful lawned gardens.
The new building is an expressive sculptural form made from a
single ribbon of structure which folds back on itself to create the floors and
primary spaces.
“Gazing out from the front deck into the
sunshine, and with a wild overgrown garden laid out before you – drugs or no
drugs, there are probably few places you’d rather be.”Jan-Carlos Kucharek, The Riba Journal, August 2007Photography:
