Overview
A landmark new building for global auctioneers, Bonhams, involving the demolition of an existing building whilst retaining the existing building façades on New Bond Street and Blenheim Street. A new 21st Century space was constructed, offering the most modern facilities and auction experience in the world.
The new six-storey building has façades of reconstituted stone panels, brickwork, curtain walling and rain screen cladding and is served by four scenic glass lifts. Unique features include double-height salesrooms with a skybox to maximise sales viewings, preview galleries, a café and daylit workspaces for Bonhams’ specialist staff.
