Project Details: Neighborhood: Dumbo CBRE Global Workplace Solutions, LondonMonday, June 24th, 2024Article Source: Caroline Collett Design agency SpaceInvader – winner of both a BCO and a Sustainable Design Collective Award in 2023 for its workplace design projects, as well as being named Design Practice of the Year at Mixology North Awards – has just completed a new, 25,683 sq ft office project in Broadgate, London, within one of the City of London’s most dynamic neighbourhoods, for client Aldermore. Project: Aldermore Offices Brief and Approach: ‘We looked to the dramatic and varied landscapes of the African continent as our aesthetic inspiration’ Sarah Dabbs explained. ‘This route found expression in the scheme’s colour palette, along with textures, patterns, forms, artwork and lighting. The scheme also features planting species originally found in Africa, all set within a warm and earthy overall palette with a bold edge.’ Sustainability and Building Challenges: The SpaceInvader design team, working closely with contractor CBRE Global Workplace Solutions, retained the majority of the existing ceilings, apart from areas that had been lowered. A lot of the existing flooring was also retained, except in areas where new feature carpets needed to be added. A number of decorative lighting elements were also kept in situ, because of the ceiling retention, as long as they integrated well with the scheme’s new rafts and linear features. Totally new elements include the new gantry over the desking areas, for example, which features a rippling water texture, with this space inspired by the landscape of Africa’s great lakes. ‘Here, as with many projects in the contemporary workplace field, demolition and refurbishment have to be undertaken with great care’, John Williams, SpaceInvader Founder, explained of the agency’s approach. ‘The build-and-burn era is over, thank goodness, and the best contemporary approach is about taking the time and care to ascertain the optimum next step for everything that has been inherited rather than selected. The African Influence: Six different landscapes were chosen as the inspiration for different areas: The Savannah ‘The planting was a very important part of the mix on this project’ Sarah Dabbs added. ‘SpaceInvader worked closely with Plant Plan to get it right. A lot of research was undertaken into different regions of Africa, so that planting was chosen to reflect relevant plants for each area of the design. Whilst we chose species that were native to Africa, such as the date palm, we also had to select very carefully to ensure these were plants that would also thrive indoors. The meeting rooms in the scheme also follow a plant name nomenclature. We provided a long list of possibilities to the client and suggested different routes, whilst the client made the final choices and undertook the graphic design for these directly.’ The ‘Savannah’ areas also take inspiration from traditional and modern African architecture, through the application of angular forms in the form of terracotta tiles for use within the planters – and for the joinery of the screens. The barista area features stunning, metal wraparound panels from Homapal via Formica, which were made to order. The panels respond to some of the photography used by the design team as inspiration from the Savannah, featuring both the more obvious reds, oranges and golds of sunsets, but also less obvious tones of blue and violet.
