The first building at London Dock is now complete! Clipper Wharf provides 57 apartments within a 6-storey bronze anodised aluminium and glass box, inspired by the historic dockside architecture of metal transit sheds that once stood on the site. Forming a jewel-like object in the cityscape, Clipper Wharf is the development's flagship residential building, designed to create a sense of arrival at London Dock. 

Emily graduated top of her year at the Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL. Here, she was awarded the prestigious Ross Jamieson Prize alongside a Commendation. This followed Part I and Part II degrees from the University of Sheffield and Newcastle University respectively. After attending Central St Martins, she developed an interest in portraiture, resulting in exhibitions and commissions from independent businesses in her hometown of Stratford Upon Avon.

Emily previously worked at Bennetts Associates, gaining experience in office, education and cultural projects. This included the award-winning weathered steel fly-tower extension to the Grade II Listed Shaftesbury Theatre and refurbishment of a 1980’s building to provide working space for 1250 council staff at Bexley Civic Offices.

Since joining Patel Taylor in 2016, Emily has predominantly worked on Phases 1 and 2 of Beam Park. Her experience has ranged from large scale mixed-use regeneration projects such as London Dock and White City, to landscape and office projects as well as smaller scale bids and feasibility studies.

Born in Chongqing, China, Qian graduated with a dual degree in Architecture and Landscape from the University of Sheffield before gaining her Part II from the University of Bath. She gained work experience at Priestman Architects in Chongqing and Aedas in Bristol.

Since joining Patel Taylor in 2016 Qian has been working on several large mixed-use regeneration projects including London Dock and Stephenson Street. She has also worked on a range of feasibility studies and projects of varying scales such as St George's Bristol. She qualified as an Architect in 2018.

"The jury were extremely impressed with the sensitive use of materials both externally and internally. The architect has paid particular attention to how natural light falls on the building's surfaces and has specified simple concrete finishes to effectively show off the material's capabilities. The library extension, that accompanies the student centre, is also a skilled piece of work, with expressive use of external in-situ concrete complimenting the existing architecture but not merely copying. As in the student centre a simple palette of materials both inside and out has been handled with expertise and care."

Tom is a landscape architect with over 12 years UK experience in a wide variety of landscape related projects. Tom has a Bachelor’s degree in landscape architecture [Hons] from Ball State University, Indiana and moved to the UK in 2003. Tom joined Patel Taylor in 2015, where he leads the landscape design team providing a unique multifunctional service. In the past, Tom worked at Martha Schwartz Partners and Studio Egret West with creative design teams to implement imaginative landscapes worldwide. He works to ensure that the same placemaking strategy continues for Patel Taylor.

Since joining the practice Tom has worked on a wide range of different scale projects from 3,000 home masterplans to detailed planning applications for extensions. These include Ponton Road where vast brownfield sites are now being transformed to form a brand new residential and business quarter right in the heart of London, White City a 4.2 hectare site located opposite the former BBC Television Centre and Stephenson Street where a new green tapestry with a transformational linear park will help to reconnect the Lea Valley as a new city quarter.

We are incredibly proud to have won RIBA East Building of the Year Award as well as an RIBA East Regional Award for our University of Essex Albert Sloman Library and Silberrad Student Centre. The project is now up for consideration for the RIBA National Award which will be revealed in June 2016.

We are delighted to take one of Bristol’s most loved concert venues through to the next stage of design development. The new pavilion for St George's Bristol, which has recently received planning consent, will reconfigure and extend this world-class music venue helping to secure its long term future and financial sustainability.
