Garrion Tower Refurbishment, Wishaw

The mindful refurbishment and extension of a semi-derelict Grade B Listed Tower in Central Lanarkshire.

The Project for G4 Claims c/o Nicole Rudder sees the upcoming realisation of the Clients dream wedding venue.

Site analysis lead us to quickly understand that the setting of the Tower and grounds, were soon to become compromised by the pending approval of a housing development that would wrap itself around the front of the Tower. The partial demise of the green setting of the Tower would lead us to incorporate new green roofs on the project extension. These roofs would be further developed to be walkable, usable spaces on the top of the extensions. Guests could delight in rooftop bars and spill-out spaces, overseeing the remainder of the grounds whilst screening out the new surrounding housing development.
