The Lazlo / Henley Halebrown Architects

The Laszlo is on a largely residential street in a conservation area close to Highgate in North London, and a neighbor to the University of Arts, London. The 5-story building dates from c. 1900. Originally the Batavia Mills, it was used for manufacturing and printing. During World War II gas masks were stored in the building. The facades are brick, with pronounced piers and arched set-back window openings layered to create a facade with depth and shadow. Inside the structural frame is steel.
