Barking Industria, our project for Be First, has won Best Use of Brownfield Land in Placemaking at the Planning Awards. Due to complete this summer, Industria is one of a new generation of urban industrial buildings that are integrated within mixed-use townscapes and provide high-quality urban design, as well the amenities to support local neighbourhoods and to attract and retain skilled workers. The project represents an exciting new industrial typology for the UK that has the potential to be of national significance in this field. This is the second year in a row that Haworth Tompkins has taken this category, with Gardner Close chosen as the winning entry in 2022.
