Student housing delivered in just 12 months within a local conservation area
The construction of Savoy Circus, known as Chapter White City, is another addition to the series of student housing schemes designed by HTA and delivered by Vision Modular Systems. It sees the redevelopment of a site vacant for over 20 years with a contemporary building that sits sympathetically within a conservation area, with references to the famous cinema that once sat on the site. The building provides 306 student studios, social space, a cafe, administration and a gym on the ground floor. The basement contains laundry, bike storage and servicing, and a large common room opening onto a sheltered landscaped courtyard. Designed to optimise the benefits of the Vision Modular system, the project was delivered from concept to completion in 30 months, with work on site completed in 12 months.
