Ed McCoy , Sales Director at Barratt West London , said historic brownfield sites , such as disused factories , often represent a distinct moment in a community ’ s history – and opportunity for regeneration .
“ Where we are transforming these underused sites , we aim to celebrate that history whilst ensuring any new building will play a significant role in the community ’ s future . For example , we are working with award-winning architects dMFK in the careful restoration of the former Nestlé building at Hayes Village , leaving no stone unturned .
“ The iconic white and blue Art Deco façade will be preserved , with replica heritage windows , industrial style metal balconies and the innovative weaving of historic factory machinery and artefacts into the interior architecture . We hope to sensitive restoration creates beautiful homes where residents chose to live and stay .”
