Ambition

Wembley, to this day, is still renowned for its large amount of student buildings that are required to house all who attend any one of the city’s prestigious universities. A cluster of three slim towers, erected next to the heights of neighbouring developments, Karma House was ambitious due to its planned quick turnaround, and innovative offsite construction method. This was to be done without sacrificing quality or coordination.
