Archant London’s new 21st century office accommodation is an iconic building that reflects their position as the UK’s largest independent newspaper group. With its bold, contemporary design, the new building is a striking presence in the local streetscape by day and at night. Features include the double-height glazed reception and automatic sun-tracking louvres for solar shading.

An understanding of the way staff use space, and how the space might enhance their working lives, is the basis for the design where two floors feel like one. It’s an expansive unbroken space encouraging interaction and communication and it has created a much-improved working environment for staff.
