Syntegra Consulting were appointed to undertake the full BREEAM assessment of Conquest House, London, WC1, a 22,500sqft landmark HQ major refurbishment project in the heart of Bloomsbury.
The unusually low floor-to-ceiling heights of this six-storey, 1950’s steel framed, brick-clad office building made its refurbishment far from straight forward. As part of the revamp the offices were modernised with the addition of triple glazed windows, insulation was added to the walls, an air-conditioning system was installed and the floor-plates were remodelled to increase the lettable area. In addition, the rear garden was excavated and a new two-storey steel framed atrium was built to create a basement-level break-out space and café.
We are delighted that Conquest House won the London and South East region BCO Award2012 in the best Refurbished/Recycled Workplace category for Conquest House.
