About

In this extensive refurbishment of the 1970s office building at 8 Bleeding Heart Yard (20-23 Greville Street), the majority of the original structure was retained, focusing on circular design. The refurbishment spans 35,566 square feet, with renovations to the basement, ground, and first floors, which have been adapted for retail and restaurant use. Additionally, a two-storey public colonnade was added to enhance the building's functionality and accessibility.

Refurbishment includes a CLT primary structure, earning recognition at AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards, Civic Trust & New London Awards 2023.

The project has been recognised for its commitment to retrofitting and reuse, receiving accolades such as the AJ Retrofit & Reuse Awards 2024, Civic Trust Awards 2024, and New London Awards 2023. The primary structural system for the addition uses Cross-Laminated Timber (CLT).
