The story

The story behind the work.

Soho Place turns a complex transport site into an urban composition of offices, retail, a theatre and the first new street name in Soho for 72 years.

The north building sits above the station, while the south contains the first purpose-built West End theatre in 50 years with offices above. External terraces and a new public square strengthen the connection between Oxford Street and Soho.
