Rising from salvaged brick and concrete rubble at Convoys Wharf in South East London, this architecture reclaims overlooked materials to create layered, inhabitable walls — a choreographed act of architectural archaeology. These materials are reassembled through a sequential construction process that references both the British terrace house and Deptford High Street’s social and physical character. The project establishes a publicly private, multicultural music education academy, sourcing materials from within Voice 4 Deptford’s Convoys Wharf masterplan site clearance. Both the site-harvested geological inhabitable walls and the large construction-waste rubble rain gardens celebrate the overlooked and discarded materials.
Harvested Concrete rubble, broken brick, and found artifacts are upcycled on-site — transforming demolition debris into a layered narrative of material and memory.
This architecture filters light, sound, and movement — mediating public and private realms in response to the rhythms and spirit of Deptford High Street.
Upcycled double-layer London sash windows frame, reveal, or obscure views toward the rubble rain gardens, inviting a shifting dialogue with the landscape.
A design led by material reuse invites light, weather, and time to interact with the architecture — creating spaces that shift and respond as rubble meets nature.
Old sash windows reassembled into double-glazed curtain walls; fire-rated doors are repurposed as CLT panels— turning London’s material leftovers into architecture once again.
