On Greenwich Peninsula, a uniquely modern
area of London is emerging that harnesses an
inventive spirit to create a truly forward-think-
ing neighbourhood. The £8.4 billion investment
in the Peninsula is forging an entirely new
community and a creative blueprint for the
London of the future.
Combining cutting edge design with a vibrant
cultural scene in a setting of wide-open skies and
sweeping river views, it’s a community with both
creativity and relaxation at its heart. Wrapped by

the majesty of the Thames and only one stop from
Canary Wharf, Upper Riverside is one of seven
integrated and distinctive neighbourhoods that
are rising up across the Peninsula.
From the entrepreneurial creativity of the
Design District bordering the green swathes of
Parkside, to the buzz of Peninsula Central with
its boutiques and renowned restaurants, to the
elevated garden walkway known as The Tide that
connects it all – this progressive London destina-
tion will inspire a new concept for urban living.

AGAINST THE FLOW

While Hackney and Peckham continue their

ascent as London’s über cool hotspots, Green-
wich Peninsula has quietly laid the foundations
for an ever-evolving creative scene. Born from
a fierce independence, it’s a community that
thrives on the unknown and on its people being
that little bit different.

Five shimmering glass towers look over the water not
in opposition but in possibility. This is Upper Riverside, the
latest striking addition to London’s skyline, designed by
globally renowned architects SOM, with elegant, undulating
angles that nod to the shifting surfaces of the River Thames.
The tallest of the family of buildings at Upper Riverside, No.5
sits at its North Eastern edge with dramatic views down river

towards the gleaming steel of the Thames Barrier.
While the family of five buildings share an architectural
relationship inspired by the proximity to the water, the inte-
riors have each been envisaged by a different design prac-
tice. Designed by Design Haus Liberty and Knight Dragon,
No. 5 takes direct reference from The Thames and its shift-
ing shoreline through their use of colour, form and texture.

WHERE MINDS MEET

Home to a burgeoning collective of pioneer-

ing individuals united through creativity, Green-
wich Peninsula has emerged as one of London’s
distinctive new riverside districts. Helping map
out the future in this progressive neighbourhood
is an interwoven eclectic mix of original think-
ers – from designers and architects to artists and
crafts people.

Around this vibrant riverside quarter a new
London is emerging. Surrounded by vast skies
and open waters, the Peninsula is a place with
creativity at its heart – a community that encour-
ages individuality rather than predictability.
Each of the neighbourhoods on the 150-acre
Peninsula is distinct yet complementary. A short
walk from the Marks Barfield designed NOW
Gallery is the heart of the community, a new Design
District where workshops, studios and labs for over
1,800 London creatives are housed in avant-garde
buildings. Here on the edge of the Central Park,
you’ll find a collective of artists, designers, crafts
people and new technology pioneers united by
a shared creative spirit and supported by afforda-
ble workspaces.
This new community will connect with
nearby Ravensbourne University that special-
ises in design, fashion and media. It continues
in the footsteps of other artists who have been

inspired by the unique waterside urban setting.
Damien Hirst lived on the Peninsula in a rented
cottage near the Pilot pub where he made his first
medicine cabinet. His two towering brass sculp-
tures Hydra & Kali and Mermaid stand overlook-
ing the Thames alongside other works including
Allen Jones’ Head In The Wind. Joining them are
artworks of The Line, London’s first contempo-
rary art walk featuring Gary Hume’s Liberty Grip.
Hume’s impressive brass sculpture is one of
many artistic riverside landmarks along The Tide,
the artistic garden walkway and popular cycling/
jogging route that will soon wrap the whole neigh-
bourhood. With its distinctive striped pattern
emulating the ebb and flow of the Thames, the
open terraces along the walkway are scattered
with grasses, wild flowers, and silver birch trees.
Dotted along here are some of the OPO medita-
tion portals designed by neuro-sonic soundscape
pioneers BeBox.

This floating community garden/greenhouse is
home to HEJ Coffee Roastery and a great little
cafe with the sounds of boats chiming in the

the riverside are the wetlands and hides of Green-

most tranquil spots.

The botanical hub of creativity and wellbe-

ing of The Jetty contrasts with some of the Penin-
sula’s more refined eating options. Next to each
other on the ground floor of Upper Riverside
you’ll find Ardoa, the latest concept from the
Vinothec Compass team, offering small plates
from the Basque region. Founded and helmed by
Chef Stevie Parle and designed by Tom Dixon,
Craft’s rooftop bar with 360-degree views and a
lovely terrace continues the seasonal theme of
the restaurant with classic cocktails using natu-
ral ingredients.

The building has amazing views of the
Thames. We were influenced by the changing
nature of the river seen in the context of its urban
surroundings. The light plays on the surface of the
water and at times you get the contrast of deep
blue-black with the copper, bronze reflections.
This helped determine both our colour palette
and our selection of materials.

We always do a lot of research into finishes
and we found a material with a large-scale terrazzo
aggregate that referenced the shoreline very well,
which we used in the bathrooms. We also used deep

and a smaller aggregate terrazzo in the kitchens.

COLOUR SCHEME?
There are two colour palettes for the apart-
ments again inspired by the Thames. The main
living spaces have been painted in warm greys
and the bedrooms in deep greys. Rich stained
engineered oak flooring has been laid throughout
the living spaces and the bedroom wardrobe and
kitchen ironmongery is in bronze, pewter tones.

THE DESIGN?
I am a firm believer that creating a positive
ambience in one’s home is not just about colour and
furniture selection but also good space planning and
well considered design detailing. By which I mean if
all of the component parts fit together like a jigsaw
puzzle the design appears seamless and fluid.
I hope that the occupants have a positive
emotional response to the design and feel a sense
of connection with the surrounding landscape.

The river’s influence can be seen through-
out the interiors of No.5 with light and dark gravel
like textured tiles bringing to mind the shore as
it is revealed. Tonally darker in design than the
other family of buildings at Upper Riverside, No.5
uses earthy tones to further evoke the might of
the Thames.

The Thames is an imposing ever-chang-

ing confluence, expansive and dynamic with ever
changing colours and a shoreline that reveals new
materials at each tide. In their concept for the inte-
riors at No 5, our designers have taken inspiration
from this in their use of both colour and texture.
