'A polished update for a former shoe factory', Dave Leblanc, October 2020
For his Architourist column, Dave Leblanc writes about the rich history of the Bata family, and the renovation of the old Bata shoe factory into bright, quality living spaces. Designed in conjunction with BDP Quadrangle, our firm wanted to celebrate the modern spirit of the factory through retaining the concrete structure and contrasting it with new cladding and ample glazing, while achieving high energy performance and sustainability standards.
