This important new addition to Paddington has set a new benchmark for the area. Occupying a canal-side location just opposite the entrance to Paddington Station, the building makes a striking architectural statement with an expressed external diagrid structure, leaving its 3.5m high internal floor plates impressively column-free. New public realm provides attractive access to the waterside, matched by two large rooftop terraces.
Provided full development management services for the duration of the project, both while at Derwent London and subsequently.
