A 90,000ft2 building comprising refurbished and new build spaces, a cafe, reception and generous amounts of external space. Constructed using the latest in timber technology to create a sustainable and healthy workplace environment. The original 1930s building was designed to be extended upwards as the owner’s wallpaper business expanded. The new building fulfils this ambition by retaining the existing structure (655 tonnes of embedded carbon) and extending upwards and outwards to maximise the site’s potential. The Structural Timber extensions trap 1,066 tonnes of embedded carbon.
