Premier Inn has recently invested in the redevelopment of its Uxbridge hotel to provide increased accommodation options and better facilities for guests. To achieve this, a brand new 80-bed unit has been constructed.
The services design uses an all electric solution with air source heat pumps for heating, cooling, and hot water generation. Overall a low energy strategy had been delivered to minimise operational running costs.
Located to the east of Carnaby Street and part of the Shaftesbury portfolio, 57 Broadwick Street has undergone an extensive refurbishment of the office and retail podium area to provide new shell restaurant and retail units, two new apartments on the fourth floor, and 20,445sq.ft office accommodation on first, second, third and part fourth floors.
The Practice was responsible for the design and site monitoring of the related mechanical, electrical and public health services installation.
The project also involved the refurbishment of the reception space and improvement of the cycle store entrance and wayfinding at basement level.
Academy House was refurbished to provide 22,100ft² of high quality office accommodation. Watkins Payne supplied building services engineering which saw the 3rd to 6th floor including the ground floor reception of Academy House converted into open plan office areas and reception. This became the London headquarters for Sports Direct.
