101 Barbirolli Square

La Française sought to elevate the end of journey experience at their prime city office building, 101 Barbirolli Square. The project aimed to create high-quality facilities for occupiers, including modern, functional spaces for cyclists, joggers, and commuters. The challenge was to deliver these amenities within a tight budget and timeframe, while maintaining the high standards expected for a prime city office building.
 
Solid Ground was appointed to manage the design and delivery of the project from start to finish. Their approach involved a clear understanding of La Française’s objectives and a commitment to ensuring that the final product met the needs of the building’s occupiers.
