LSE submits Carmody Groarke and Sheppard Robson Bankside student scheme

Together with Sheppard Robson, we have submitted planning permission for LSE's Bankside House, delivering exceptional student accommodation with development partner Bouygues Construction UK and Equitix.

Our design is conceived as three houses that contribute to London’s river skyline while opening the site to the city, increasing porosity and strengthening the public space south of Tate Modern. At ground level, a series of pavilions establish a civic presence and create a welcoming threshold between LSE, the Southbank and the wider city. Inside, every student room is a good room, with shared spaces on each level enjoying some of London’s most extraordinary views. More than a residence, the architecture is designed to foster exchange, belonging and a genuine sense of home.
