Kings Cross Filling Station

by Dan Sellars on June 4, 2012

In terms of ‘pop-up’ spaces, this is one of the greatest projects to have been brought into reality. Design by carmody-groarke architects.

1 Dan Sellars June 4, 2012 at 6:38 am: Architect’s statement of intent:

Conversion of a derelict petrol station in King’s Cross has created a new external public events space and diner-style restaurant overlooking the Regent’s Canal. The intervention of a 200m-long, fibre-glass screen corresponding to the existing structures on the site, provides a protective enclosure of the new functions from the busy arterial roads, as well as a strong new identity for the site by day and by night.
