ABOUT

Boulevard on Bristol Street is a major residential development in Birmingham’s Southside, bringing together 278 one- and two-bedroom apartments with shared spaces for work, leisure and everyday life. A slender tower and lower courtyard buildings give the scheme a varied skyline, while warm brick façades and deeply framed windows establish a consistent architectural character.

Inside, generous glazing brings daylight into open-plan living and dining spaces. Contemporary kitchens, calm bedrooms and carefully finished bathrooms create comfortable homes within a busy urban setting. Beyond the apartments, residents’ lounges, workspaces, a gym and landscaped gardens extend the experience of home and offer places to meet, relax and spend time outdoors.

The reception and communal interiors combine timber detailing, textured finishes and richly coloured seating to create a welcoming arrival. From the scale of the street frontage to the quieter spaces within, the development balances the density of city living with a sense of comfort and belonging.

Wake Morley Architects were involved in the project from early 2018 and worked with main contractor Bespoke Construction on the delivery of the scheme.
