THE DEVELOPMENT
Centre Point has been reinvented as a high-quality residential address by developer Almacantar, together with Conran & Partners and MICA, carefully converting the tower whilst preserving the listed exterior. Behind the original concrete lattice, interiors have been completely reimagined with contemporary layouts, full-height glazing, upgraded services and calm, refined finishes that make the most of the light and far-reaching views.
DESIGN
Centre Point Residences is the revival of an icon: a design classic that embodies the spirit of swinging London and stands as a focal point for the creative and cultural heartbeat of this ever-changing city. When Centre Point arrived in London in 1966, its bold geometric design and delicate honeycomb façade captured the confidence, optimism and creative flair of the decade. Today, under the careful curation of an award-winning team, the building is experiencing a new life as an exclusive residence in a truly exceptional location.
The spectacular double-height reception with its original staircases and commissioned artworks offers a dramatic welcome. The selection of every material, colour and detail was inspired by the distinctive character of the original building: the graphic, three-dimensional confidence of its exterior façade; the bold use of pattern and contrast in the 1960s mezzanine level, where white Carrara marble is cast into black terrazzo; and other surviving elements of the original bespoke ironmongery, joinery and tiling. Staff on the door, at reception, and in the concierge team are always available welcome residents home and offer whatever services are required with discretion and assurance.
Centre Point has always caught the eye and the imagination. When it was originally under construction, Londoners marvelled at the pioneering building process that allowed it to be put together so quickly. Once finished, its captivating geometric design, delicate honeycomb façade and towering presence made the building an instantly recognisable landmark – with Londoners and tourists
