The Loampit Vale Leisure Centre will be situated on the lowest three floors of a 27 storey apartment building in Lewisham. There will be a competition pool with spectator seating and a judgement platform and a 20 meter learner pool, both with movable floors. On the first floor a gym and two dance studios are located as well as a wellness area with treatment rooms, sauna and steam room. Further areas include a club room, climbing wall, crèche, reception/café area and meeting rooms.

The finishes of the elevation is particularly interesting: 1400 glass panels in ten colours are illuminated from above. The lighting responds to the sounds inside the centre. The pattern for the panels was made by an artist.
