BRACKEN HOUSE
OFFICE BUILDING
JOHN ROBERTSON ARCHITECTS
John Robertson Architects (JRA) has completed the refurbishment
of Bracken House in the City of London on behalf of the building’s
owner, Obayashi Corporation. Bracken House was designed by Sir
Albert Richardson in 1959 as The Financial Times (FT) headquarters
and was extensively remodeled in the high-tech style by Michael
Hopkins & Partners between 1988 and 1992. After an absence of
almost 30 years, JRA’s sensitive refurbishment has made it possible
for the FT to return to this iconic building.
