Clarence Centre, a University-based innovation and incubator centre for entrepreneurs offering flexible high-quality office spaces, start-up units for small businesses and support facilities, public cafe and gallery. This ambitious project re-used seventeen derelict Grade II-listed Georgian terraced buildings and a former Victorian public house within their Southwark campus, adding new-build circulation/ ancillary spaces to the rear to create a modern facility – transforming neglected heritage buildings.
