Architects’ Office in London

documentation    p. 1114 - 1119
Architect Allies + Morrison | Structural Engineer whitbybird |

The form of Allies and Morrison's new office building in London reflects the awkward shape of the site. The structure consists of an exposed concrete skeleton frame. The clear lines of the 36-metre-long fully glazed north front overlooking the road are contrasted with the south-facing rear aspect, which is articulated into a series of stepped roof gardens.
