The project involved the creation of new treatment rooms and reception areas within the existing health suite accommodation. The Practice was responsible for the design and site monitoring of the related mechanical, electrical and public health services installations. The works had to be carried out whilst the health and spa facilities were maintained in operation, representing significant technical challenges.
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 project involved the refurbishment and extension of the existing building to deliver over 260,000sq ft of office space, achieving BREEAM ‘Outstanding’.
