Cathedral Street, Glasgow
A purpose-built student accommodation scheme at Cathedral Street, Glasgow.
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.

Sustainability initiatives include LED lighting with occupancy detection and daylight dimming controls, solar thermal hot water heating, air source heat pumps and photovoltaic panels, resulting in an EPC rating of A and a Very Good rating under BREEAM New Construction (Industrial) 2014.
The building at 202 Hammersmith Road has been refurbished to offer 14,864ft² of high quality office accommodation, for which Watkins Payne supplied building services engineering and energy consultancy to achieve an EPC B rating.
The refurbishment of 53 Great Suffolk Street in London involved the transformation of a historic warehouse into a contemporary office space. This project focused on preserving the building’s industrial character while introducing modern amenities and sustainable features.
