234 Bath Road

234 BATH ROAD SLOUGH, UK 234 Bath Road creates a dynamic new gateway building to the Slough Trading Estate. The scheme is a three-storey office building located at the corner of Bath and Leigh Roads. Sustainable Re-use of existing structure The Western portion of the building re-uses the basement and pre tensioned concrete structural frame of the original office building on the site. The floor plate has been extended out to the new façade line, and 40m towards the new Eastern entrance. The 15.8m wide office floors are punctured with two full-height atria creating attractive, energy-efficient, day-lit office space. Lightweight structural extension and envelope The extended accommodation is wrapped in a new light-weight structure comprising a series of elegant full-height structural frames defined by tapered fins, plinths and parapets. The main entrance is housed within an impressive 15m-high entry colonnade with a glazed reception area, creating a strong visual link to the surrounding urban context and optimising the building’s prominent corner location on the Bath Road. Central to the design is a language of details and materials that, while maintaining robustness, civic scale and impact, delivers a building which is clean, crisp and light.
