Enhancing one of the UK's flagship designer outlets
In 2016, plans for a significant expansion to Ashford Designer Outlet in Kent, UK, were given the green light by Ashford Borough Council.
This is Ashford Designer Outlet's first extension since the centre opened in 2000.
Improved retail and leisure offer
The extension will add a further 38 retail and leisure units to the 80 already there, a new events space and children’s play area and improved links to the town centre.
A stunning 'living green wall' cladding system
A stunning 'living green wall' cladding system to reflect the centre's location in Kent, which is a county often referred to as the Garden of England. With year-round savings, the Outlet centre is famous for attracting affluent long-haul tourists from Continental Europe and day-out visitors.
The new extension is designed by Chapman Taylor, along with Applied Landscape Design.
