Pineapple Awards

Last night Low Line Commons received yet another honour, this time at the Pineapple Awards where it topped the Future Public Realm category. Up against some very strong competition in a much coveted category, this is nothing short of a fantastic achievement with judges commending the project as a “blueprint for sensitive regeneration”.

Civic Trust Award Winners!

This is our first ever Civic Trust Award (Pro Tem category*) – Europe’s longest-standing built environment awards. Our winning Holyrood Street Kiosk project was commended for showcasing how landscape, green infrastructure and public realm projects can positively contribute towards a greener and more carbon-conscious future.

*The Pro Tem category celebrates temporary projects that make an outstanding contribution to the quality and appearance of the built environment, championing sustainability, accessibility and civic contribution.

Congratulations to the client (Better Bankside; Team London Bridge; Bermondsey Blue; Southwark Council and the funding from the Mayors Good Growth Fund via the GLA) and project team on a fantastic win.

Lowline Commons

Overall Winner of the NLA Awards 2021

After our success participating in the London Festival of Architecture events, our RIBA competition-winning scheme, the Low Line Commons project has won 2 New London Architecture Awards! We are honoured that this worthy, sustainable, regeneration strategy, funded by the Mayor’s Good Growth Fund, is now achieving wider industry recognition. At this year’s NLA awards in the Guildhall, City of London, the project won both the Planning category and the overall NLA award across all 14 categories beating over 140 submissions which shows how important an area-wide regeneration strategy is for Southwark in London.

Folkestone Harbour Link

Landscape Institute Award – Winner

We are thrilled to announce that Macfarlane + Associates have won the 2019 Landscape Institute Awards for “Enhancing Culture and Heritage” for the unique and extraordinary Folkestone Harbour Link.

The Harbour Link has been a vital component in regenerating Folkestone and has breathed new life into the seafront. The design sensitivity transforms the harbourside heritage setting with memorable and usable public realm in a way that is respectful to their distinct character and past.

Having been closed since 2001, the newly regenerated Harbour Station’s platforms were reopened in Spring 2018 and are now used as the pedestrian route to and from the Harbour Arm. Various art and rail installations can now be found, adding further interest to the Station. Without this regeneration, the Harbour and heritage structures sited there would have continued to deteriorate until they would eventually have been beyond repair.
