Carrick House
 

Carrick House on the north bank of the River Thames includes 120 apartments over 11 storeys

South-facing balconies that stretch three-storeys tall are switched at each horizontal band

A 'giant order', common to 19th century London terrace housing, breaks down the block's mass

Strips of corrugated terracotta are interrupted by a continuous stone stringer course

Together the design elements make an 11 storey block appear more like a five storey block
