Located on a prominent site at the intersection of Holborn Viaduct and Farringdon Street, the thirteen-storey building will deliver a world class sustainable, adaptable, and healthy new workplace environment, capable of accommodating single or multiple tenancies. At the heart of the design approach is the understanding that human comfort and wellbeing are paramount to creating sustainable environments that enhance people’s health, foster creativity and spark innovation.

Friars Bridge Court will be a major new 21 storey office led development at the northern end of Blackfriars Road in Southwark. The building will replace an existing office building dating from 1991 to create an environment that envisions new ways of working, and is defined by generous amenity spaces including a gallery and two large roof terraces with sweeping views across London and The Thames. Whilst the southern half of Blackfriars Road is characterised by buildings of fairly uniform height, the northern half has a more varied street wall, culminating in a series of object towers towards its northern terminus. Our building sits between these two conditions, and is designed to strengthen the end of the block in which its sits and announce  through its scale the transition to the more singular buildings towards the river.

Located just north of one of London’s busiest transport interchanges, our masterplan for Nova Victoria introduced new workplaces, retail spaces, residences, and a vast pedestrian-friendly public realm. PLP Architecture designed the two principal buildings within the masterplan, alongside the surrounding external spaces.

Our new headquarters building for Clivedale Ventures at 73 Brook Street replaces a 1970s red granite property with a new structure sympathetic in its expression to its setting within the Georgian terrace and the Mayfair Conservation Area. The site, on a prominent route to the new Crossrail Bond Street Station from Grosvenor Square, forms part of an entry sequence into Mayfair.
