PLUS is a RIBA-chartered architecture practice based in Central London, working with clients across Wapping — one of London’s most distinctive riverside neighbourhoods, where historic warehouses, cobbled streets, and converted wharf buildings create a uniquely atmospheric setting. Wapping’s blend of maritime heritage and contemporary living offers a striking backdrop for thoughtful, design-led architecture.
Wapping’s residential fabric is unlike anywhere else in the city. Former dockside warehouses with exposed brickwork and generous structural grids sit alongside Georgian houses, modern townhouses, and riverside apartments with panoramic Thames views. These buildings present rich opportunities for sensitive reconfiguration, interior remodelling, and high-specification refurbishments that enhance light, flow, and everyday quality of life.
Designing in Wapping often means working within conservation areas and engaging with buildings of significant historic character. Our approach respects the industrial origins of the area — retaining texture, rhythm, and material authenticity — while introducing elegant, modern interventions. From rethinking the spatial layout of a warehouse apartment to refining the detailing of a townhouse extension, we balance heritage sensitivity with contemporary performance and craftsmanship.
Our team specialises in bespoke refurbishments, interior architecture, and complete transformations of period and industrial-conversion homes. Whether you’re looking to optimise a riverside apartment, create a more functional family layout, or elevate a historic warehouse interior with refined, modern design, we bring clarity, precision, and a deep understanding of Wapping’s urban context.
If you’re planning a renovation or reconfiguration of a property in Wapping, we’d be delighted to collaborate with you.
