The architecture firm aLLDesign, led by Will Alsop, have revealed plans for a mixed-use development in the west London town of Brentford.

The practice hope to transform a rundown 84 hectare site on Capital Interchange Way, near the M4 motorway, into a transport and community hub that will “make life better” for all who visit.

The development – which is located next to Brentford Football Club’s proposed Community Stadium – will feature a landscaped public park containing large sculptural installations. Sport, residential and leisure facilities and a bus depot will be spread across three distinctively-shaped towers within the development. Housing and office space will also be included.

Alsop said: “Our aim is to make a positive contribution to the Golden Mile, which is a gateway to London for millions of people each year. The requirement for the depot was of primary importance and led the team to design a mixed-use development that includes recreational facilities and a park.”

The leader of Hounslow Council, Steve Curran, said: “We have an ambitious vision for a strategic regeneration of the Golden Mile, making it fit for 21st Century working and living. We welcome high-profile architects like Will Alsop bringing forward imaginative design and strong investment.”

Public consultations will start at the end of October. The scheme is expected to be entered for planning by early 2016.
