16 CASE STUDY
we’ve built at Corben Mews were manufactured offsite means that the development had less environmental impact than a traditional build, which would have taken far longer.” The units also meet and exceed both sound proofing and insulation standards, and, assisted by being on the top floor, they have impressive thermal qualities, minimising the need to heat the apartments.
VALUE OUT OF THIN AIR In order to achieve all this, Anthony tells me that Click Above has invested in R&D for almost a decade to ensure its offer is viable and can be delivered. He says: “Corben Mews is evidence that it can, and the project has attracted a huge amount of interest and feedback from a variety of audiences. “We pride ourselves on specialist bespoke solutions, developing airspace above buildings that may not be considered, and believe this sets us apart in the market.”
He also believes that for freeholders and building owners, the company has demonstrated how airspace development can “quite literally increase the value of their asset and generate income from air.” “Additionally,” he adds, “Corben Mews

is a tangible example to these audiences of how additional accommodation can be delivered when there’s seemingly not space on which to do so, and it has also provided evidence of how the appearance and facilities of the existing building can be enhanced through development of this kind.”
Click Above offers free evaluations of the airspace above their investments, and enquiries of this nature can be managed via its website.
The developer has also drawn the attention of several local London Boroughs looking to increase their housing supply without having to look for traditional land for development. He says: “These are conversations which
we are now actively developing, and we’re able to utilise Corben Mews as a positive example of how offsite constructions methods and airspace development can offer solutions to the housing shortage, through well thought out design.” “Finally, but importantly,” Moubarak
concludes, “these penthouses don’t just serve as an exemplar of airspace development in practice, they are real homes which are now available for sale and they’ve already attracted significant levels of interest from both young professionals and investors alike.”
