Pitzhanger Manor and Gallery, located in the heart of Ealing, holds a prestigious legacy as the former home of neoclassical architect Sir John Soane. Across from this Grade I listed house built at the start of the 19th century stands Pitzhanger Hub, a modern structure designed to echo Soane’s visionary spirit and address the question, ‘What would Soane do today?’ It offers a vibrant hub for volunteers and the local community, providing essential meeting space.

Constructed between two existing listed Georgian brick walls, the new structure demonstrates Jo Townshend Architects’ commitment to both innovation and sustainability, serving as an example of concrete-and steel-free building. The design draws inspiration from Soane’s innovative principles, incorporating various motifs such as buildings within buildings, lanterns, and the play of light.
