Red Lion Court
Watkins Payne carried out the Independent Design Review role for Red Lion Court, a mixed use commercial office development, located in central London.
Following the successful Cat A office refurbishment of the upper part of 33 Glasshouse Street, the second phase known as 100 Regent Street comprised the reconfiguring of the basement, ground and first floor retail areas from one large unit into three small retail units, and changing the second floor from retail to office accommodation.
The three retail units have been provided as shell installations with the requisite incoming services.
The second floor change to offices is based on the same approach as the upper floor refurbishment, providing a mechanical heating/cooling and ventilation solution within a raised floor, and suspended linear LED luminaires. This design makes the most of the floor to ceiling height, and allows the exposed ceiling irregular down stand beam arrangement to complement the space without imposing uneven suspended ceiling lines.
The office scheme will achieve a BREEAM 2014 rating of Very Good, and EPC rating of B for the office and retail space respectively.
Watkins Payne carried out the Independent Design Review role for Red Lion Court, a mixed use commercial office development, located in central London.
Situated in Southwark on the intersection of Great Suffolk Street and Union Street, the iconic red brick Union House, historically a warehouse converted into offices, has undergone a substantial redevelopment.
Watkins Payne provided MEP systems and IT cabling design services for the fit-out of 186,000ft2 of commercial offices in the eight storey 1 Forbury Place in Reading, which formed the focus of SSE Services plc’s relocation strategy to consolidate several buildings from across southern England and accommodate 1,500 employees in a single location.
Unit 8, in Tangmere Business Park near Chichester, has been provided with a complete refurbishment giving both the warehouse and associated office space attached a much needed re-fresh and new feel.
The building has been meticulously refurbished to incorporate a range of sustainable features, targeting BREEAM Excellent and EPC A ratings.
32 Duke Street in the heart of St James’s, the contemporary development known as The Marq comprises mixed use accommodation, with A1 and A3 retail units across ground and basement floors and 35,460ft2 of office space on six upper levels.
