Stratford Westfield student housing development consultation shows building design
Work is proceeding on plans to build 520 student rooms about part of Westfield in Stratford.
A consultation event has been held revealing images of the proposed design close to Stratford International DLR and Southeastern stations.
There ‘s a very strong 1970s emphasis with the proposed design.

Architectural influence
Consultation documents state:
Our designs draw on the history of Stratford, with architectural elements borrowed from the site’s past experience as a strategic transport hub

It also continues:
The proposed main façade of the building will add a striking presence and complement the existing colours of the location

If approved Westfield are hoping to see the block complete by autumn 2027.
Running a site alone takes time and a fair bit of money. Adverts are far from enough to cover it and my living costs as a private renter.

The new student block will have elements of design from buildings previously in Statford is a really nice touch.
Being close to transport links will be ideal for students. I think this development will be very popular amongst students studying in the area.
