Building Tomorrow's London, Today
Over a decade of experience delivering innovative housing solutions that address the UK's most pressing need - quality homes.
A Pioneer in Airspace Development
Founded in London, Apex Airspace Development Ltd emerged from a simple but powerful insight: cities don't need to sprawl outward when they can grow upward. In a capital city constrained by geography and protected green space, London's rooftops represent an untapped frontier for housing delivery.
Our founders pioneered the concept of airspace development, using the unused space above existing buildings as a platform for new, high-quality residential units. Using modern offsite modular construction, we can deliver homes with minimal disruption to existing residents and occupiers.
Today, Apex operates across three complementary programmes - Airspace Development, Brownfield & Stalled Sites, and our Small Sites Programme - each designed to unlock housing supply in a housing-constrained city.
To address the UK's housing shortage
Through innovation in urban densification and sustainable residential development.
A London where no land goes to waste
Where every rooftop, brownfield site, and infill opportunity is realised as quality homes.
Quality. Innovation. Collaboration.
We deliver to the highest standards, working transparently with all partners and stakeholders.
