Hive Curates is seeking applications from artists with a connection to Walthamstow to design two large scale murals for the interior courtyard and exterior wall of Gort Scott & Pocket Living’s affordable home project at Forest Road.

The design team have opened the creation of these murals to the public with the intention of cultivating designs which celebrate the creativity and innovation central to Walthamstow’s culture. Dynamic compositions which act as a mirror to the heritage and stories of the area and positively connect local communities are anticipated.

Hive Curates is a North London based art organisation which provides workspace for artists and specialises in arts and placemaking.

Gort Scott Gets Ready for Open City Accelerate

Gort Scott is proud to be supporting Open City Accelerate in 2023. In its ten year history Accelerate has established a programme which supports 16-18 year olds interested in architecture with a series of workshops, in-depth university application guidance, and mentoring from an established London-based architecture practice.

This year, Gort Scott will be taking on two Accelerate students for three days of in-practice mentoring. Emily Temperton, Fraser Leach-Smith, and Kleovoulos Aristarchou have volunteered their time to the programme and have teamed up to devise an in depth structure for the placement which aims to help students feel ready for their Part 1 studies.

Planning Submitted for Extensive Silvertown Scheme

Gort Scott’s proposals for 331 affordable new homes and ten townhouses at Silvertown have been submitted to Newham Council for planning approval.

With Silvertown, Gort Scott has exercised its valuable high street and town centre research in the development of two urban blocks which provide affordable homes above a carefully considered and resilient street level which aims to build community and provide social infrastructure by offering a high street setting which integrates existing and new neighbourhoods.

We are pleased to have been able to work so closely with Lendlease throughout this significant project which will bring new life and purpose to Silvertown’s historic industrial location in Newham.

Our project team includes our collaborative partners OMMX.

We have developed our proposals with Prior + Partners, the masterplanners for the Silvertown development, alongside several other leading architecture practices working on plots across the site.
