Skills for a sustainable skyline taskforce

#Announcement – We are joining the City of London Corporation’s “Skills for a Sustainable Skyline Taskforce”, with our Sustainability & Submissions Director Ashleigh Goss as an Associate Member of the Task Group. Joining other influential and representative leaders from across the sustainable commercial built environment, we will be championing the Taskforce and supplying insights and resources for the Task Groups. The Taskforce has been created in response to the growing skills gap in the built environment sector, which has been creating a significant barrier to achieving London’s net zero carbon targets. Composed of employers, education and training providers, industry bodies and national and local government, to address the green skills gaps in the commercial built environment. Neilcott is excited to be involved with such influential and important initiatives. Click here to read more about the initiative & recommendations in the Skyline Skills Report.

Stephen lawrence prize shortlist

Our Chowdhury Walk development on Daubeney Road has been shortlisted for yet another award! RIBA has announced the 6-strong shortlist for the Stephen Lawrence Prize 2024, with projects presenting a fusion of social purpose and restorative design. Founded by Baroness Doreen Lawrence OBE and the Marco Goldschmeid Foundation, the annual prize was established in 1998 in memory of Stephen Lawrence, a teenager and aspiring architect who was the victim of a fatal racist attack in 1993. Intended to encourage new talent and inspire others in the early stages of their architectural career, the award exclusively recognises projects led by an early career project architect. This is typically someone who has qualified within five years prior to the project’s completion date. It is an honour to see our project make the shortlist, which is a sculptural infill development heralding the beginnings of an ambitious programme of new generation council housing by London Borough of Hackney. Congratulations to all those involved, in particular AL-JAWAD PIKE, who designed the Chowdhury Walk development.

AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards Shortlist

We are thrilled to share that our project, The Temple Building, Brighton Girls School designed by Walters & Cohen Architects has been shortlisted for the AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards 2024, in the category of Conservation and Historic (up to £5 million). The AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards celebrate architectural expertise and ingenuity in the physical and environmental adaption and upgrade of buildings, and the reuse of building materials and structure in response to the climate emergency and changing requirements of use. Works Neilcott Construction Limited delivered for the Grade II Listed Temple Building included the internal configuration of the Basement, Ground Floor, First and Second floors to provide upgraded teaching and admin facilities. The ground floor was converted into a coffee-shop-style space for everyday study and socialising as well as presentations, conferences and events. A library/study, presentation room and makerspace surrounding the main area are easily adaptable so that they can be used separately or together. Works also converted the basement into a music centre, with music classrooms, practice rooms, a flexible performance space and specialist music storage. Whilst the second floor provides a new sixth for space. To ensure the space was as functional and as practical as it could be, we conducted workshops with students of the school, who gave great insights into what they wanted for studying and socialising, particularly in terms of furniture.
