Box Makers Yard is a vibrant community of studio, one, two and three bedroom apartments based on Avon St, Bristol. Box Makers Yard is right in the heart of Temple Quarter, Bristol’s innovative new neighbourhood with Temple Meads train station, riverside walks, community cafés and independent shops just a short stroll away. The 12-storey building has a whole host of communal spaces.

THE PROJECT

The apartments feature a courtyard or city views, private balconies or terraces.

Stofix utilised mast climbers instead of traditional scaffolding which resulted in reduced labour cost.

PROJECT CHALLENGES

The city centre location meant the space on site was limited. As the Stofix system is manufactured off-site, the limited space had minimal impact. The pre-fabricated brick slip cladding panels ensured product quality, consistency and the project was completed on schedule.

Covid-19 caused numerous issues, from the availability of building materials to labour shortages. There were also issues with high winds as the building site was closely situated to the Bristol Channel.
