The project adopts a sustainable approach, expanding and
improving the existing office accommodation with the creation of
generous communal spaces in the new extension at ground and
first floor, as well as the conversion of the panoramic top floor.
The ground and first floors have been expanded to activate the
frontage and engage both visually and physically with the public
space around the building, to create an open and welcoming
approach. This new extension allows for generous communal
spaces where the building’s occupiers can come together, share
facilities and interact with the wider community, a fundamental
aspect in TOG’s approach to the provision of shared work space.
The larger floor plates are better suited to open-plan, flexible
layouts and can be easily accommodated and reconfigured over
time, future-proofing the building.
The existing top floor plant has been largely removed and the
elegant ‘floating canopy’ roof has been converted as office space
and a rooftop bar and terrace which makes the most of the
prominent riverside location with spectacular views across to
Westminster and up and down the River.
The relationship between the external open space and the
interior of the building is mediated by the introduction of two-
storey colonnades which give civic character to the previously
introverted lower levels of Tintagel House, while at the same time
creating a sense of enclosure and providing private amenity for
building users in the form of external terraces along the riverside.
