Construction and CAT A fit-out of two office blocks providing 362,000 sqft of commercial accommodation along with a multi-storey car park.

Building A is a nine-storey building with a basement. Building A will have a strong architectural identity with the form of the building continuing the curved profile of Eden Street.

Additionally, Building B is an eleven-storey building with a basement. Building B is a second complementary office building that will front Brook Street, set back on the top floor providing further amenity space.

The two offices are fully integrated and designed for long-term flexibility. At ground level, the joint entrance off Brook Street creates a grand and welcoming approach whilst defining the main reception area. This will also reinforce the new public realm being created nearby. A connecting bridge at the sixth-floor level will create a seamless transition internally to the proposed social and communal spaces located on the sixth floor of Building A.

Once completed the buildings will be the new headquarters of the British-Dutch multi-national consumer goods company Unilever, bringing together employees from four other sites.
