2007年，John McAslan + Partners受Land Securities委托，在伦敦Queen’s Gate和Petty France交界处的地标性 “点 “上设计了一座10层的混合用途建筑。这个重要的项目包括一个拥有62套公寓的高价值公寓楼，以及部分底层的零售，临近白金汉门和Petty France。该建筑将于今年晚些时候完工，将成为客户在维多利亚车站附近的相关开发计划中的私人住宅部分。

In 2007 John McAslan + Partners was commissioned by Land Securities to design a 10-storey mixed use building on a landmark ‘point’ location at the junction of Queen’s Gate and Petty France, London. This significant project comprises a high-value apartment block with 62 apartments, as well as retail on part of the ground floor, with frontages on Buckingham Gate and Petty France. The building, to be completed later this year, will be the private residential component of the client’s associated development scheme nearer to Victoria station.

惠灵顿大厦的建筑语言是基于对传统大宅的现代诠释，建筑的主体被定义为一个单一的体量，用砖石包覆。第九层用锌和玻璃包层区分开来，在天际线上显示为一个阁楼，后退使建筑的明显高度降到最低。设计发展已经解决了三角形场地位于保护区内的事实，并仔细考虑了建筑的印度砂岩立面。在被各种规模、类型和历史建筑风格的建筑所包围的情况下，John McAslan + Partners与艺术家Georgia Russell合作，开发了一种刻痕处理–灵感来自于鸟类的飞行模式和风的流动–给建筑带来了独特的新特征，并为附近地区创造了一个视觉焦点。

The architectural language of Wellington House is based on a contemporary interpretation of the conventional mansion block, with the main body of the building defined as a single volume, clad in masonry. The ninth floor is differentiated with zinc and glass cladding, registering as an attic storey against the skyline, the setback minimizing the building’s apparent height. Design development has addressed the fact that the triangular site sits within a conservation area, and careful consideration has been given to the building’s Indian Sandstone façade. Surrounded by buildings of various scales, typologies and historic architectural styles, John McAslan + Partners collaborated with the artist Georgia Russell to develop an incised treatment – inspired by the flight pattern of birds and of wind flow – that brings a distinctive new character to the building and creates a visual focal-point for the immediate area.

该建筑的门窗设计基本上是有序的，刻意的变化实现了单个窗户元素和整个组合之间的平衡。突出的砖石翅片创造了一个额外的视觉动态，通过当地街景提供的建筑物的斜视图得到加强。鳍状物也提供了一定程度的遮阳和隐私。威灵顿大厦基本上是独立的，除了一个单层的汽车升降机连接到后面的建筑。因此，所有的公寓都受益于良好的日照，位于顶层的公寓可以欣赏到伦敦的绝美景色。66%的公寓提供了户外休闲空间（嵌入式阳台或通过屋顶的露台）。

The building’s fenestration is essentially ordered, with deliberate variation achieving a balance between an individual window element and the complete ensemble. Projecting masonry fins create an additional visual dynamic, enhanced by the oblique views of the building afforded by the local streetscape. The fins also provide a degree of shading and privacy. Wellington House is essentially freestanding, apart from a single storey car-lift link to the building behind it. As a result, all apartments benefit from good daylight, with those on the top floor enjoying superb views across London. 66% of the apartments are provided with outdoor amenity space (either an inset balcony or via terraces at roof level).

垂直循环核心位于中心位置，为所有公寓提供简单、清晰的通道。车辆入口和服务/垃圾收集站位于Petty France。地下室有19辆汽车的停车位，以及每个公寓的自行车位。

The vertical circulation core is located centrally to provide simple, legible access to all apartments. The vehicle entrance and set down for servicing/refuse collection is located on Petty France. The basement contains parking provision for 19 cars, as well as a cycle space for each apartment.
