A fresh take on open plan, ersatz warehouse living, stripped-back apartments at No.8 Harbord Square have been designed around borderless imaginations and countless live-work-play setups curated by a true reflection of you and your unique lifestyle.

Here, there are no rules...or internal walls - apart from the bathroom - and only the essential elements in fixed locations allowing for free-flow, retractable and fluid layouts designed around what you might need now and what metaphorically may be around the corner - whether a home office or extra bedroom space.

Internally, homes are drenched in plumes of natural light and dressed in exposed brickwork, concrete ceilings and raw pipework, bragging simplicity with unexpected flashes of glamour including top-shelf, design-led kitchen and bathrooms.

There are two apartment styles built for the creative and curious - the Gramercy and Prospect Lofts - both with versatile and adaptable zones arranged around the contents of your imagination and what fires it - be it cooking, socialising, painting, exercising or working.

Freedom of expression is king here - but if you need a helping hand, interior designers are on standby to provide inspiration and help you realise exactly how you wish to live, without having to follow hard and fast rules of convention.

Externally, No.8 Harbord Square nods to rich Wharf-side history while performing to highly sustainable modern standards. The facade follows the vernacular of the Docklands industrial heritage - a striking red-brick building organised into simple verticle bays characterised by crittal-style windows and built around Harbord Square Park in Canary Wharf's new, beautifully imagined Wood Wharf waterfront district.

It's one of London's newest live/work neighbourhoods that serves as a model for future living in the capital; a genuinely exciting place to call home, community-focussed and brought to life through immersive living and working in outstanding homes and offices with plenty of green spaces streaked through Canary Wharf's glossy buildings, retail, bars and cafes.

The 15-minute walking city - a popular urban design concept based on being able to access everything you might need to live a balanced, social and fulfilled life within a 15-minute walk or cycle was thrown into sharp relief during the Covid-19 pandemic and forms the blueprint of Wood Wharf's infrastructure.

'The Lanes' will be Harbord Square residents' urban village offering an eclectic and independent mix of shops, bars, restaurants and cafes. For a change in pace, Harbord Square Park offers green space and headspace alongside the new district's 9 acres of interconnected waterside walkways and gardens.

One of the best-connected areas in east London, access to the rest of the capital is speedy via multiple modes of transport. Canary Wharf is visually linked to Central London via the River Thames and physically accessed by the scenic Thames Clipper boat service.

Served by the Jubilee line, reach Westminster in 11 minutes and Bond street in just 15 minutes. The Elizabeth Line is set to open in 2022 and will connect the area to Central London and stretches of London's eastern and western suburbs - including Heathrow Airport ( 39 minutes) in greatly reduced journey times.
