IDR - Independent Design Review
Seal House
Watkins Payne carried out the Independent Design Review role for Seal House, a commercial office development, located in central London.
The two unit 161,000ft² Skyline development for SEGRO plc provides well connected Grade A logistics, distribution and warehousing facilities as it is adjacent to Heathrow Airport and the immediate motorway and rail networks.
Constructed on a design and build basis with the office accommodation fitted out to Category A standard, the project benefits from sustainability initiatives including LED lighting with occupancy detection and daylight dimming controls, solar thermal hot water heating, air source heat pumps and photovoltaic panels, all combining to provide an A rated EPC and a ‘Very Good’ rating under BREEAM New Construction 2014.
