Architect and Builder Offices Retrospective | Page 625

Management and Materials The building is managed by a Building Management System ( BMS ), which helps with the way in which the building is run , from live metering to adjusting the automated blinds to the orientation of the sun .
No products that have high VOC levels were used , including paints or tile adhesives that are high in toxins which affect the wellbeing of the tenants . The design brings in generous sunlight without glare , assisting with comfort levels and a positive atmosphere in the workspace which in turn encourages a positive and healthy workforce . The materials used at 199 Oxford have been focussed on the principles of design for disassembly . A combination of glazing , steel , brickwork , and stone give you a view of how this puzzle fits together . The majority of elements used were locally produced .
Conclusion The first phase of the Oxford Parks development is the exciting commencement of the holistic effort to make an exceptional intervention into the existing city structure , establishing a vibrant mixed use community along Oxford Road .
