We are proud to be the only brickwork specialist in the UK to deliver this type of bespoke glazed façade — a truly one-of-a-kind installation that defines both the North and South entrances of the iconic Southside Shopping Centre in Wandsworth.
Appointed by 7Formation Ltd, AMG London Ltd was trusted to carry out the complete rebuild of both entrances. The project combined architectural ambition, technical challenge, and exceptional craftsmanship.
Scope of Works
Our involvement included:
Installation of vertically laid glazed bricks – a complex and visually bold design rarely seen in the UK
Careful brick matching to seamlessly connect with existing traditional façades
Construction of precisely formed round arches using advanced specialist masonry techniques
Challenges & Solutions
This was not a standard build — it was a technically demanding project involving bespoke materials, tight tolerances, and continuous coordination with structural engineers and design teams. The live environment of a busy shopping centre added further complexity, requiring detailed logistical planning and safe delivery at every stage.
Results & Impact
The result is a pair of striking entrance façades that successfully blend contemporary innovation with heritage sensitivity. The glazed brickwork now serves as a landmark visual identity for the shopping centre, while the matching brickwork and arched detailing maintain architectural harmony with the surrounding environment.
At AMG London Ltd, we take pride in pushing boundaries in specialist brickwork and façade design — and this project is a powerful example of that vision brought to life.
