Paddington Central, London

The regeneration of former industrial goods yard at Paddington presented a significant challenge for the designers of Paddington Central. M+A were instrumental in masterplanning the site including the exciting dramatic central plaza with Sheldon Square, the centrepiece which has become a recognisable space synonymous with Paddington.

Developing bespoke public art, lighting, seating and accessibility strategies to enhance truly meaningful public realm has set a benchmark for the wider area and shaped the development into the successful new urban quarter that exists today.
