Key Details

Overview

143-157 Farringdon Road is a commercial development in Clerkenwell, London EC1.

BentallGreenOak will redevelop and extend a series of four former warehouse buildings in Clerkenwell. Fathom Architects design improvements will reduce the carbon footprint of the buildings and enhance the tenant experience.

The available space will be increased by almost 10,000 sq ft with significant upgrades to the quality of workspace creating private and communal terraces and improving circulation. Upgraded shopfronts activate space for coworking, retail and cafes, and a reconfigured basement supports sustainable travel with cycle storage, lockers and showers.

Poor energy performance across the four buildings was addressed by taking a holistic view. A complete overhaul of the MEP services strategy targets a reduction of the development’s whole life carbon performance to achieve a 32% improvement on GLA’s ‘Aspirational Benchmark’.

The future occupiers will benefit from natural ventilation on all floors and a 3,000 sq ft communal roof terrace to enhance the wellness attributes of the development as well as support the reduction in operational carbon.
