High Street in Putney, a bustling thoroughfare nestled in the heart of London, has long been a hub of activity and commerce. Amongst its storied buildings and vibrant shops, one project stands out as a testament to both architectural ingenuity and meticulous craftsmanship: the transformation above the retail shop by Evoke.

As the sun rose over the iconic skyline of London, the team at Evoke set forth on a journey that would redefine the space above the bustling High Street. With a clear vision and unwavering determination, they set out to undertake a series of structural works that would not only enhance the aesthetic appeal but also reinforce the integrity of the building.

The project commenced in December 2015, amidst the crisp winter air that enveloped the city. Against the backdrop of seasonal festivities and twinkling lights, the team began the arduous task of underpinning the existing structure. With meticulous precision, they laid the foundation for the internal conversion that was to come, ensuring that every aspect of the project adhered to the highest standards of safety and craftsmanship.

As the days turned into weeks and the weeks into months, the project began to take shape, like a masterpiece slowly revealed to the world. Steel columns rose defiantly against the skyline, a testament to the strength and resilience of modern engineering. Structural demolition echoed through the streets as the old made way for the new, breathing new life into the historic building.

Amidst the hustle and bustle of the city below, the team at Evoke worked tirelessly to install new steelwork on different floors, each beam carefully placed to support the weight of the structure above. With tireless focus, they meticulously crafted a new roof structure, a crowning achievement that would stand as a beacon of innovation for years to come.

But the renovation did not stop there. With an eye towards maximising space and functionality, the team got started on a loft conversion that would elevate the living experience to new heights. With skillful precision, they expanded the living quarters, creating cosy retreats amidst the urban landscape.

As the project neared its completion in October 2017, the streets below buzzed with anticipation, eager to witness the unveiling of the newly converted space. Eight luxurious flats awaited their new inhabitants, each meticulously designed to blend seamlessly with the vibrant energy of High Street, Putney.

As the final touches were put in place, the team at Evoke reflected on the journey that had brought them to this moment. Through adversity and triumph, they had remained steadfast in their commitment to excellence, leaving an indelible mark on the skyline of London.

Today, as the sun sets and the lights of Putney and High Street come back on, the internal conversion above the retail store is a reminder of the strength that comes from vision, ingenuity, and unwavering determination. Evoke has not only reshaped a building but has also reshaped the fabric of the community, leaving behind a legacy that will endure for generations to come.
