Modern, Sleek designed home in Howard Street, Paddington

Howard Street in Paddington, a high-profile residential area, featured a development project that created a modern space with four separate units.

McHugh Steel took on the task of providing the steel framework crucial for the buildings’ structural integrity. The challenge arose during the initial design phase, where the units were planned as individual structures. McHugh Steel worked to ensure they fit together seamlessly, achieving consistency, stability, and a cohesive aesthetic.

Apollo engaged McHugh Steel to deliver the steel framework essential for the structural integrity of the buildings. The challenge began in the initial design phase—although the units were designed as individual structures, McHugh Steel had to ensure they came together seamlessly to achieve consistency, stability, and a unified aesthetic.

The key challenge was reconciling the design concept of four individual units with a unified steel framework. As a result, the design team had to find a way to detail the steelwork. This approach addressed both the unique nature of each unit and the need for a cohesive, stable structure.

Key Issues:

  • Different design concepts for each unit
  • Need for alignment across all four units
  • Complexity in detailing to accommodate the final design

McHugh Steel was responsible for both the supply and installation of the steel frames and trusses, ensuring a seamless process from start to finish. The team collaborated closely with the design and engineering teams to fabricate and install the steel components in line with the project’s unique requirements. By completing the steel framework efficiently and accurately, they helped keep the project on schedule and ensured the structure supported the building’s intended design.

The Howard Street project in Paddington highlighted McHugh Steel’s ability to meet complex architectural demands with high-quality solutions. The team overcame the challenge of designing and detailing steel frames for four distinct units as a cohesive whole. Their collaboration, precision, and problem-solving led to a successful outcome. This reinforced McHugh Steel’s reputation for reliability and innovation in custom steel fabrication and installation. This project stands as a testament to the value of integrated planning and the strength of a flexible, solutions-focused approach.
