Overview
The demolition and redevelopment of two buildings whilst retaining the façade on Marylebone Lane. Due to the constrained site location between commercial and residential neighbours the project required careful planning, extensive temporary works and a sensitive logistics sequence. The basement slab was lowered to improve floor-to-ceiling heights for base build plant areas, cycle storage and retail space.
On Thayer Street, the new façade was constructed with York handmade brickwork while internally the reception has been finished with brick slip wall cladding, bronze panelling, leather seating and micro-cement flooring. The new six-storey construction now provides modern Cat A offices on the upper floors and retail space to the basement and ground floors.
