The project is located in the city centre with fantastic views of the Castle and Murrayfield.
We were appointed as Sustainability Consultants to conduct the Fitwel assessment.
A Fitwel certification demonstrates a commitment to higher sustainability performance and quality in the built environment and provides a credible assessment against best-practice standards in the industry. At Watkins Payne, we have a team of qualified Fitwel Ambassadors who provide support at every step of the assessment process.
We are happy to announce that Dundee Street has been awarded a Fitwel 1 Star Rating. This project incorporates several evidence-based design and operations strategies that support its occupants’ physical, mental and social health.
Located in the heart of London’s West End, 9 Cavendish Square is undergoing a high-quality refurbishment to transform this prestigious address into a modern, efficient, and sustainable workplace. The works involve a full mechanical, electrical, and public health (MEPH) services upgrade to deliver a building that meets contemporary operational and environmental standards.
Sustainability is incredibly important for the Client and as such the building is BREEAM ‘Outstanding’, WELL ‘enabled’ Gold, alongside WiredScore Platinum. In addition, the Design for Performance approach is been adopted in order to minimise operational energy and hence carbon emissions.
The building has been meticulously refurbished to incorporate a range of sustainable features, targeting BREEAM Excellent and EPC A ratings.
Watkins Payne is proud to have been an integral part of the MEPH services, Vertical Transportation and sustainability BREEAM consultancy for the CAT A fit-out project at Pembroke Building, overseen by Cogent BC LLP.
