Grade A office development in a prime commercial location in Edinburgh. 45,000sqft of cutting edge office and retail space.
Design and construction of a five-storey office development with retail shell at ground floor and basement parking / ancillary areas.
The building’s design is focused on sustainability and creating an exceptional working environment, exuding space and natural light, beginning with a bold, bright and contemporary reception area and extending throughout the six floors.
The private sector project involved demolition of an existing building, and construction of a concrete core, basement and steel frame as an extension to an existing building.
The site is located in a busy city centre location and surrounded by residential flatted dwellings, shops and offices that remained in use throughout the works.
