Catford Mews, London by Wren Architecture and Design
‘This is a very striking meanwhile-use project that is full of energy,’ said the judges. ‘It shows how overlooked spaces can be transformed with a very small budget.’ Catford Shopping Centre, sitting beneath the 1970s Milford Towers Estate, has been in decline for the past two decades and is subject to redevelopment by the council. In the meantime, Really Local Group with Catford Regeneration Partnership has transformed the space into a cinema, live performance space and café. The entire building structure has been retained. FW
