Watkins Payne carried out the Independent Design Reviewer role for Red Lion Court, a mixed use commercial office development, located in central London.
A single stage formal review was conducted for the project which is targeting a 5.0 Star Rating.
Designed by Foster Associates in the late 1970s, the Tetris A40 industrial and logistics distribution building in Greenford contains elements that are now listed due to their architectural and design value.
11 Waterloo Place is located in St James’s London. The newly refurbished CAT A office space on the 1st floor is complete with amazing views of Big Ben and St James’s Park.
The completed site now comprises four detached industrial warehouse units ranging from 14,000sq ft to 36,000sq ft, all with naturally ventilated and heated offices. The two larger units each have an 8 person MRL passenger lift, while the smaller units have been provided with platform lifts. The warehouse area was designed as a shell for future fit-out with capped off utility services.
The 47,900ft² area of The Smithson building in Farringdon was refurbished to high quality office accommodation, for which Watkins Payne supplied building services engineering, vertical transportation engineering and energy consultancy to achieve an EPC B rating.
