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.
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.
10 Fetter Lane needed some freshening up for marketing, so the first floor offices were to be modernised as a show stopper with a contemporary exposed services design and improved floor to ceiling height.
This prestigious development is focused on delivering best-in-class workplace standards while achieving high levels of sustainability, occupant wellbeing and energy efficiency.
