Grove Crescent, now marketed as Venti House, is a PBSA-led development that will add 397 student beds in support of much needed demand in East London.
Challenge
The scheme aims to add high value amenity areas to the proposal, such as landscaped roof terraces a gym, group study spaces, games and social lounges, a media room and private dining facilities. The development will also include nearly 2,000 sqm of commercial space, adding to the area’s dynamic environment.

We worked closely with the developer Watkin Jones and design team to deliver BREEAM ‘Excellent’ certification at Design Stage, both as the BREEAM Assessor and the BREEAM Accredited Professional. A score of 78.65 % and 76.35% were achieved for the PBSA and Workspace schemes, respectively.
