Hammerson House, Wohl Campus, designed by PTE and delivered by P+HS Architects for Nightingale Hammerson, has been shortlisted for a New London Architecture Award in the Healthcare category.
Hammerson House, Wohl Campus is a flagship Third Age dwelling located a short walk from Hampstead Heath, providing a homely environment for 116 residents from the Jewish community.
As well as rooms for each resident – arranged into distinct households for varying levels of care need – the four-storey building includes dining rooms, communal lounges, a café and lobby as well as therapy suites and spaces for festival celebrations.
The scheme has been imagined as a modern take on a country house hotel, accessed via a sweeping driveway. Resident bedrooms sit within pitched roof ‘houses’ defined by large windows and speckled brickwork inspired by the local Hampstead Arts & Crafts vernacular.
Nightingale Hammerson is an independent charity and a leading specialist in the care of older people. Combined with Nightingale House, a sister residence in South London – both funded with charitable donations - Hammerson House, Wohl Campus offers ‘home from home’ care to over 250 residents.
Vote for this project in the ‘People’s Choice Award’. The voting deadline is 1 November 2022.
