In a post-covid world, clients now require flexibility and sustainability when future-proofing their office buildings, writes Joe Sweeney of Fletcher Priest Architects
The growing trend for working from home is throwing into question the rationale for companies to need a dedicated headquarters building, something that was generally unthinkable only a few years ago. Yet creating and future-proofing a workspace in such a way that it is flexible, fit for purpose and meets the demanding needs of a company operating with the new ways of working is entirely achievable.
Our work with Topland and Beltane Asset Management on 150 Aldersgate, close to Farringdon’s Elizabeth line station in London, has paid off in precisely this respect. Social media giant Tik-Tok has signed an agreement to take all of the building’s 140,000 square feet of workspace, the firm being attracted to the sustainable, next-generation aspect of the development.
