The Local Kensington features 483 build-to-rent apartments with design references to historic Kensington.
Materials & application
ECOTONE Matt Plus was applied onsite to bring white and natural brick-colour finishes to grey brick moulded precast concrete.
Outcome
White sculptural archways were created from grey brick formliner precast finished with ECOTONE Matt Plus in creamy white. Upper levels featured a natural brick colour matched to ground-level red brickwork using the same product on load-bearing brick moulded precast — delivering a cost- and time-effective solution for the client.
