The Albion Nord design builds on the contemporary adaptation of a Grade II listed, prime London residence with a playful, modern colour palette paired with refined, classical detailing.”

An architect’s dream: upgrading and enhancing a true heritage asset for future generations, with living spaces and natural materials that touch the earth more gently than those that came before.
MAP Architecture was founded in 2017 to create beautiful and functional buildings that make a positive social and environmental impact.

Bayswater
Bayswater is one of London’s great Victorian neighbourhoods, laid out around garden squares between Hyde Park and Notting Hill. Today it is the focus of one of the capital’s most significant regeneration programmes - a £3 billion investment in the streets, squares and landmark buildings of Queensway and its surrounds, under way since 2022 and gathering pace ever since.
Bayswater
At the heart of the story stands The Whiteley, the Grade II listed former department store reimagined by Foster + Partners as grand residences, restaurants and the first Six Senses hotel and spa in the UK - amenities to which residents of No. 18 Porchester Gardens enjoy exclusive access.
Bayswater
Around it, Queensway’s public realm is being carefully renewed - widened pavements, new planting, a considered approach to retail and a new gateway drawing the neighbourhood towards the green expanse of Kensington Gardens and Hyde Park. The result is a neighbourhood rediscovering its standing among London’s finest addresses, its future secured for generations to come.
