Buckingham Green

Buckingham Green is a new, mixed-use development in the heart of London, with views over Westminster and Buckingham Palace. With three buildings combining commercial, retail and residential space, our job was to bring the development to life before it even existed.

Anyone interested in architecture will have heard of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. This German-American architect is considered one of the pioneers of the modernist movement. He also influenced the design of the existing building in our development - the central tower - which took inspiration from the architect’s iconic style.

So we did the same. For our series of CGIs, we took cues from Mies van der Rohe’s unique architectural approach. When it came to choosing camera angles, we favoured simple, one-point perspective shots and highlighted those elements reminiscent of Mies van der Rohe’s style, such as the impressive bookended marble in the building’s lobby area.

For the commercial office space, we created images that showed how the space could be used, with premium furniture and light-flooded shots, showing the scale of the offices.

The residential apartments were a major part of Buckingham Green. We combined interior design and CGI, based on references from the team at London & Oriental, to evoke a sense of how the apartments could look and feel, as well as the impressive views they afforded over the London skyline.

We even went one step further and focused in on the detail, to really bring the space to life in a more intimate way.
