Design and Build

The Palm House in Harrow, London is a new shared living space founded on the idea of ‘sleep in your room, live in the building’. Unlike previous shared living schemes – which adapted existing buildings or planning permissions to facilitate shared living – The Palm House is a new and purpose-built building offering 222 units designed to offer residents an enhanced communal way of living.



The eight-storey building includes workspace, event space, and a screening room, as well as a gym at first floor level and a café at lower level. Residential units include a bed, kitchenette, storage, and en suite bathroom. The building hosts two roof terraces, the top one boasting far-reaching views out across London, while the second roof terrace on the 5th floor is the perfect space to host events. A sky bridge breaks up the building’s mass and allows light to permeate through to the surrounding site. It also provides a library and reading space for residents, while also maximising the extensive views available at this level.
