GTA visited Birmingham last week to shoot some drone footage of the The Factory 55 project. The weather was stunning and allowed us to capture some excellent views of the surrounding skyline and to also look in detail at the existing structure.
Bold, primary colours on each elevation celebrate the horizontality of the building's structure in a Le Corbusier colour palette, befitting its 1958, mid-century completion date.
GTA are working in collaboration with local Architects K4 on behalf of the ‘Beyond Property Group’ who view this as a landmark project for their company.
We have been tasked with the considered development and modernisation of the deteriorated original facade of the building along with the addition of five floors to the main building creating approximately 140 contemporary apartments. Along with the works to the main building GTA are also appointed design consultants for the construction of nine adjacent complementary town houses.
Design work is in its early stages but we are thrilled to be part of this innovative, dynamic, modern housing scheme.
