Design for 22 Portman Square, including the Portman Hotel and Portman Towers, Marylebone, London: a penthouse terrace
RIBA35425
NOTES: Rosenauer was commissioned to design and build a large hotel and tower blocks on the site of the bombed ruins of Montagu House, a late 18th century house by James 'Athenian' Stuart. Having completed the design, the Fine Arts Commision turned it down, but settled for Rosenauer receiving external advice. Thus Powell & Moya, called in as consultants, made a few minor alterations to the external design, as they considered Rosenauer's design perfectly adequate.

RIBA40767
NOTES: This workshop, constructed in reinforced concrete, was conceived as a shell that descends from above and protects the inner space. It is illuminated by natural light from above through a series of small skylights and a large central light box, which are plated in zinc and quartz, and from below by an outside glass slot at ground level. The exterior is clad in large rose-coloured marble slabs.
