The Fitzrovia

An expressive, celadon-clad office on Tottenham Court Road, positioned for Crossrail commuters Located at the point where the more contemporary development on Tottenham Court Road gives way to older Victorian and Edwardian stock, The Fitzrovia also mitigates between large-scale retail architecture and the historic, lower-rise buildings around Bedford Square. Replacing an unsalvageable 1960s building, it sandwiches BREEAM Outstanding offices suited to creative and media tenants between ground-floor shops and 9 new homes. The heavily modulated civic front is clad in celadon-glazed terracotta on a basalt base, the rear in more domestic brick. The building will house 60,000 sqft of offices, 9 residential units and retail at ground floor. And has been designed to accommodate alternative uses in the future and eventually dis-assembly and repurposing. Biodiverse terraces at high level offer amenity for the building users. All residential units are dual aspect with private terraces, and the offices enjoy generous fenestration which allows good quality daylight and natural ventilation.
