Roco represents an evolution of the office-to-residential typology, providing much-needed housing in Liverpool City Centre. It adopts some of the concepts of co-living, but with spacious living areas and a community hub at the base of the building, which helps create more permeability with the surrounding area. The project demonstrates that buildings that could be considered undesirable by some can provide space to create high-quality, mixed-tenure homes. Loaded with 70s design prompts, the scheme combines timber storage, molded concrete and glass sconces to create a warm residential ambiance in contrast to the building’s rugged, industrial architecture.
