| Description |
|
This
mixed-use building on Baker Street was
designed by Jestico and Whiles for British
Land and McLeer & Rushe. It
provides retail space at street level,
including a Little Waitrose. Above
is office space where the typical level
provides a column-free floor plate of over
1,700m². The architects say that, "...
At ground floor level, the
double-height office entrance is on
the corner, where it addresses Portman
Square. This entrance is recessed to
create a covered external lobby area
which, given its prominent location on
the corner of the square, is an
appropriate location for public art.
The ground floor also provides 1,000m²
of high quality retail frontage. ....
The building achieved a BREEAM
'Excellent' rating and uses
ground-sourced heat pumps and solar
panels to reduce its carbon
footprint." |
