CommercialA Revolution is Coming
Revolution is a visionary 170,000 sqft office building for a radically changing London Borough. Realising the new ideals of Flexibility/Community and Connectivity this flagship office development delivers highly desirable workspace together with versatile, creative, collaborative and social spaces in the heart of a regenerated and resurgent London Borough of Ealing.
Revolution is a contemporary addition to the Ealing townscape that provides flexible spaces for businesses that rival anything in the West End and Central London. We’ve combined placemaking, planning and bold design to set a new standard for workplace provision.
The Brief
We were charged with the task of designing a modern, flexible, desirable workspace that could compete with the alternatives in Central London and this required us to focus and understand the fast-changing needs of businesses and their employees. A project like this demanded a painfully meticulously approach to design and specification but also plenty of experience in placemaking. The London Borough of Ealing has a unique townscape and designing a new large scale architectural addition to sit alongside more traditional buildings required us to exercise design sensitivity to the site’s locale and community.
The Design
Not only did we successfully gain planning permission for this challenging project, but our sensitive approach to building massing allowed us to exceed our client’s expectations for the scale of development possible on this landmark site. Taking inspiration from the area, and specifically a neighbouring 1930s Fire Station, we created a contemporary aesthetic that incorporated high quality masonry, while internally everything is conceived with occupiers’ businesses and their people in mind.
Modern businesses understand that the balance of working and living is crucial to their employees. Revolution is where you win the war for talent. The spacious double height ground floor is our busy and collaborative, co-working community. A stimulating and inspiring atmosphere that engages and excites.
