Jan Kattein Architects have won permission to convert the vacant garages on the Joyce and Snells estate into affordable workspace. The project will see the garages, as well as a next-door laundry yard, turned into 35 small units. It will also feature public realm work designed by local practice Fisher Cheng.
The units will be let out at an affordable rate by Launch It, a social enterprise that rents space to entrepreneurs aged 18-30, over a five-year period. Launch It already runs an enterprise hub in nearby Tottenham.
Read more about the project which has been shared in the Architects Journal.

Enfield Council has signed an agreement with the Mayor of London which means £2.2m will be spent to deliver major regeneration works in Edmonton and create a better town centre. The Council decided on 20 October to match fund the £1.1m it has been awarded from the Good Growth Fund – the Greater London Authority’s £70million programme designed to support growth and community development in London.
The decision means the cash can now be used to improve the look and feel of Angel Edmonton, provide a community hub with better library services, 30 affordable workspaces to increase employment and skills in the area, and a school street to help improve air quality.
The project will also help address concerns raised by the community and the Council is already working closely with local partners, community groups and businesses to make sure the work carried out meets the needs of people who live and work in the area.
