The Haydon – City Living Redefined

2 September 2024

The Haydon is a contemporary residential building in the heart of the City of London with apartments offering far-reaching panorama views across London. It comprises of 87 luxury homes situated in the beautiful urban oasis of East London. Embracing city living, The Haydon blends comfort, style and a range of elegantly delivered amenities. The residents wake up to breathtaking views of London with floor-to-ceiling windows. ⁠There is a modern gym with a spa pool, a dedicated yoga room and a fitness studio. They can also benefit from a state-of-the-art private cinema, an outdoor terrace, concierge and bicycle storage.⁠  

Impeccably crafted inside and out, a sequence of perforated corrugated aluminium cladding panels is used to create a metal curtain that gives privacy and filtered transparency to the residents. A number of perforation patterns were tested to create the impression of a soft and fluid metal veil.⁠  

The Haydon’s facade is inspired by metal chain mail aprons and gloves used by butchers when this site was a holding pen for the adjacent Butchers Row. A sequence of perforated corrugated metal panels is used to create a metal curtain that gives privacy and filtered transparency to the residents.
