Architect/Designer:

Client:
F&C Asset Management
Main Contractor:
Blenheim House Construction
Location:
City of London
Portland Stone:
Fancy Beach Whitbed
Scope of Project:
Build four additional floors above existing building, with redevelopment of existing office space.
1 Bartholomew Lane is a high quality new development in the City of London, located directly opposite the Bank of England.
Originally built around the 1930’s, the façade of a former bank was retained in the two principal frontages up to the 6th floor.
Behind this and extending above it in four further floors is a highly efficient modern office, offering multi-tenanted lettable space for twelve floors. The new higher level façades are clad in Albion’s Portland Fancy Beach Whitbed stone.
With a striking double-height main reception lobby incorporating a formal sweeping staircase to the lower ground, it’s Portland Stone flooring and walling, 1 Bartholomew Lane makes a strong corporate statement to staff, clients and visitors in every way.
