12 Henrietta Street boasts a historic façade in a prime location, near Covent Garden Market. The reception and two of the office floors were transformed, adding end-of-trip facilities and enhancing common parts.
The design aimed to connect the building to its surroundings, taking influence from the historic, British racing green arches of the London Transport Museum.
An arch motif was used alongside a new resin floor and in the reception. Colour is used throughout the building to tie the spaces together and aid wayfinding.
A large table for gatherings and informal meetings makes the reception more inviting to passers-by. A striking high curtain softens the space and improves acoustics.
The changes made at ground floor animate the building .
12 Henrietta street is now a vibrant workplace that makes playful reference to Covent Garden.
