This new landmark commercial scheme comprises refurbished, extended and new-build contemporary office spaces. The building features large, open plan working areas as well as communal facilities, cycle storage spaces and green areas at ground and roof levels. By inheriting and adopting existing structural elements, the proposal avoids waste, construction traffic and activity; significantly reducing its embodied carbon footprint. It also reinforces the development’s commitment to integrate into the historic and social fabric of the surrounding neighbourhood. The new- build sections will be constructed using the latest in timber technology to create a sustainable and healthy phased development.
