Last night saw the launch of The 1595 Club at Goodluck Hope – one of Ballymore’s iconic new developments in London. Goodluck Hope is an industrially inspired island paradise right across from signature development and now London landmark – City Island, and is forged from London’s enduring spirit, founded on a heritage of industry, ingenuity, craft and creativity.
This was all brought to life last night with poolside, full moon performances from rising London music talent which I am honoured and grateful to have had the chance to curate with the Ballymore team.
Ballymore is known for their signature developments and iconic architecture including the imminently launching Sky Pool at Embassy Gardens (EcoWorld Ballymore), and Goodluck Hope is no exception to this rule of iconography.
Located literally on the River Thames, Goodluck Hope consists of 804 new homes and 2,000 sq m of commercial space set in a stunning industrial but avant-garde design. Options include lofts and penthouses, and it’s just around the corner from the English National Ballet.
The design of Goodluck Hope has been inspired by the Dockland’s industrial past fused with modern creativity and a sense of consciousness, futurism and authentic artistry at its core.
Residents of the space can benefit from exclusive onsite facilities including a fully-equipped gym and boxing gym, swimming pool and jacuzzi, cinema, sauna, work house lounge and an incredible 24-hour concierge service.
The launch night for The 1595 Club included performances from UK talent breaking through internationally including Lola Coca, who has viral hits in China and major gaming and movie synch deals, Michelle O Faith who just won the MOBO grant and released her EP, Lagoon, SE.V.EN who was recently featured on Spotify’s New Music Friday for her single, Power, vegan pop star and Vero True Social ambassador SXMSON and your fave, NEO 10Y.
Ballymore working with independent rising DIY talent is another demonstration of their progressive nature as a company, understanding of the music industry and ties seamlessly into their artistic ethos and East London’s reputation as an artistic and cultural hub.
Vegan canapés were served all night in line with the conscious nature of the event and space and we also experienced dance performances from Iro Costello and Tommy Khosla on sitar.
