Cleaved Apartment Complex in London Creates Its Own Garden Views | Inhabitat
“Whitehorse Street Apartments in London is located on Whitehorse Street in the prestigious Mayfair district. The lot only has a small street frontage with the bulk of the available building space located on an inner site. In order to make the apartments desirable, Studio Seilern Architects decided to create their own views, by putting a garden on the entire first floor and splitting the complex in two to create room for a beautiful set of vertical gardens.
“The vertical garden cuts the complex in two, and windows and balconies of the apartment will be covered in vegetation. Eventually as the plants mature, ivy will cascade down the glass-fronted apartments.”
