One Hyde Park is an architectural phenomenon. The design, comprised of four separate but linked pavilions, was for a spectacular modern building that fits perfectly into its classical context. Its defining material is glass, allowing maximum light permeability with minimum intrusion, giving spectacular views of either Hyde Park or Knightsbridge from every level whilst minimising overlooking between apartments with unique bronze fins.

Once inside the building these views are maintained from a series of fully-glazed circulation cores incorporating stairs, lifts and lobbies. One Hyde Park comprises 86 apartments and duplexes (including four penthouses) plus three retail units at ground floor level

The design seeks to complement the existing streetscape of Knightsbridge and create a scheme that offers daylight and generous views whilst achieving the necessary degree of privacy for its occupants. As befits luxury apartments, elegant detailing and quality of construction were of great importance. Materials were chosen to reflect the colouring and texture of the surrounding buildings: red-brown copper alloy façades complement the surrounding red brick
buildings; and pale structural concrete mimics stone details on the neighbouring Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

A new gateway to the Park has been created by relocating
Edinburgh Gate to the western edge of the site. The roadway
is covered by a canopy and the top surface is planted to
provide a visual amenity for all those overlooking it and
protect residents from traffic noise. Epstein's 'Pan' which
was at the northern end of the existing Edinburgh Gate has
been repositioned to maintain its relationship to the new
roadway.
Along the eastern edge of the site, linking the Park to
Knightsbridge, a new pedestrian route through the
site, Serpentine Walk, has been created. The original
Knightsbridge underground station entrance has been
relocated adjacent to Mandarin Oriental Hotel. The entrance
was designed using a similar palette of materials to those
used in One Hyde Park creating a structure with a glazed roof
and walls that appears to be both open and solid.
Renowned lighting artist, James Turrell has created a unified
lighting concept that interacts with the development's
architecture. It includes perimeter lighting for the five glass
stair and lift structures and a colourful light display.
