The Gilbey House in Camden Town, London, is a Grade II listed building that originally served as a distillery, factory, and offices for Gilbey's Gin. Built in 1894, the structure was later redesigned in the International Style by architects Serge Chermayeff and Erich Mendelsohn, who transformed it into a multi-use facility encompassing office space, bottling operations, and residential apartments. The building exemplifies the modernist intervention applied to an earlier industrial structure, reflecting the architectural ambitions of the early twentieth-century avant-garde.
