Owers Warwick Architects have been working closely with Mission Street to develop a site in Foxton. Phase 1 of the scheme repurposes the currently redundant elements of the Arts and Crafts Burlington Press into offices and laboratories. The team has taken care to retain and upgrade the existing fabric .

“The goal of our proposals is to define a new future for the Burlington Press so that it can contribute positively to the local area. We’re aiming to breathe fresh life into the characterful Burlington Press buildings and, recognising the important balance between innovation and heritage, the plans will replace the unattractive 1970s buildings to the rear with contemporary, high quality and sustainable modern workspace.”
