Brief Overview of the Project:
The redevelopment of Mercury House will involve the retention and enhancement of the original building fabric to reposition the property as a next-generation workspace in Camden. The project aims to modernise the building while preserving its character. This includes:
- A refurbishment-led scheme that minimises the loss of embodied carbon.
- Provide a cafe at the South-West corner of the site, that is open to the public, to provide a much-needed amenity for the local area.
- Additional floor space created by a high-quality front extension, infilling the existing atrium from levels 06 -08, and consolidating cores to achieve more efficient floorplates.
- Stripped out Portland Stone to be reused on proposed extension facade.
- Provide higher-quality office floorplates with better daylighting and access to outdoor spaces.
- Provide best-in-class amenities for the whole building with generous cycle facilities, co-working space, landscaped forecourt and rear yard, sunken courtyard, communal rooftop terrace and event space.
