“An absolutely stunning project delivered by our team”

Large, empty modern office space with polished concrete floors, exposed ceiling ducts and pipes, and multiple structural columns. The room is illuminated by natural light from large windows on the right and overhead fluorescent lights. Wooden doors are visible at the far end.

This project involved the strip-out and refurbishment of 7,542 sq m (82,000 sq ft) of commercial office space across three floors. The programme returned the building to a high-quality Category A office standard while supporting the ongoing occupation of part of the property. In addition, we delivered a CAT B office fit-out for an existing tenant occupying 1,600 sq m (17,225 sq ft) within the building.

Modernising the Building Infrastructure

A key aspect of the office refurbishment focused on replacing the existing building services infrastructure. Therefore, we removed outdated systems and installed a new VRF air conditioning system, ventilation, small power, lighting, and two new passenger lifts.

Furthermore, the design embraced a contemporary workplace aesthetic. Exposed services, exposed soffits, and vapour-blasted columns combine to create a modern urban workspace that appeals to today’s occupiers. As a result, the building now offers a flexible and efficient office environment with improved performance and functionality.

Transforming Shared Amenities

We also delivered a new main entrance and external walkway to enhance the building’s arrival experience. In addition, we created a purpose-designed reception area and coffee breakout space that provides an inviting environment for tenants and visitors alike.

The ground floor also incorporates four large meeting rooms and office suites, supporting collaboration and flexible working. Meanwhile, we refurbished all toilet facilities and upgraded the main communal staircases to improve both appearance and user experience throughout the building.

Enhancing Sustainability and Building Performance

Alongside the internal refurbishment works, we completed a comprehensive upgrade of the building envelope. First, we stripped and recovered the roof while introducing enhanced insulation to improve thermal efficiency and reduce energy consumption.

We also refurbished the façade to revitalise the external appearance of the building. This work included replacing façade gaskets, respraying external surfaces, and installing new window gaskets throughout. Consequently, the building benefits from improved environmental performance alongside a fresh, contemporary appearance.

The Outcome

The completed commercial office refurbishment transformed the building into a modern workplace destination. Through a combination of CAT A refurbishment, CAT B fit-out works, building services upgrades, and façade improvements, we delivered a future-ready office environment that supports occupier wellbeing, flexibility, and long-term value.
