A MATCH MADE IN BRITAIN.

ConranandPartners

Boasting some of the City’s most recognisable architecture, Blake Tower needed interiors that could live up to their iconic setting. That’s why Redrow London chose to work with Conran and Partners.

Blake Tower was built to the same exacting standards as the rest of the Barbican. Its rebirth as a residential tower has created interiors that perfectly balance the architects' sense of detail with the light, space and finishing of a design-led contemporary home.

32 REDROW LONDON

Built to breathe new life into the City after the Second World War, the Barbican is one of the Square Mile’s most recognisable landmarks. This ‘city within a city’ was conceived by three idealistic and remarkably talented architects as a vision of a better Central London – imposing but intimate, functional but beautiful.
