Dome House workspace project now complete

→

We have completed the renovation and upgrade of Dome House, a heritage building in Spitalfields. The project restores and adapts the structure to provide flexible workspace in the City of London.

Dome House features a cranked roof with a glazed lantern atop to draw in natural light. The dome, previously hidden by a false ceiling has been revealed and restored.

Interiors are overhauled, including the reordering and re-imagining of internal spaces as well as upgrading the building fabric. The CAT A fit-out strategy embraces flexibility, accommodating multiple working arrangements and spatial configurations. This robust base-build approach ensures the space can adapt to diverse occupant needs and future fit-out scenarios while maintaining the integrity of the historic structure.

A modest rooftop extension accommodates a new staircase leading to a roof terrace, providing occupants with panoramic views across the Artillery Passage Conservation Area. The extension is constructed in a lightweight timber frame, which helps to minimise the structural loading on the existing building and reduces the embodied carbon impact.

Many architects, through their work, create art and alter environments. A few, like Gort Scott, transform lives.
