improved accessibility and added a transformative sixth storey: Myo New Street Square’s rooftop pavilion and landscaped terrace. The pavilion’s references the strong gridded geometry of Bennetts’ original façade, with anchor points and new fabric carefully coordinated to sit atop the existing building’s post-tension concrete structure.’ The new interiors introduce a palette of complementary materials creating a timeless aesthetic that is driven by high-quality and robust craftsmanship. Hardwood mid-toned oak has been incorporated throughout the building to soften and warm the cooler materiality of the original building, with detailing to mirror the robust and quality external stone.


The design provides break-out spaces for informal collaborative working, booths for concentration, high-spec meeting rooms for traditional collaboration, and terraces on every floor to boost well-being. Each floorplate can be reconfigured in as many ways as possible, enabling tenants to implement their preferred mix of open-plan and private workspace.


‘The original five storeys have been greened to provide well-being-boosting visual amenity and reconfigured to accommodate a series of versatile, contemporary event spaces, shared eating areas and state-of-the-art end-of- trip facilities,’ says Scott with sustainability a pivotal design driver, as reflected in Myo New Street Square’s targeted WELL Platinum and NABERS 4.5* Design Reviewed Target Rating. The entire structure has been decarbonised with the introduction of a new, technically innovative temperature control and ventilation system, in line with Landsec’s wider goal to decarbonise its portfolio and achieve a 70% reduction in operational carbon by 2030. The refurbishment has improved the EPC to an ‘A’. ‘We have designed for longevity,’ concludes Scott. ‘While retrofit is vastly more sustainable than demolish and rebuild, having to fit out a building repeatedly, of course, diminishes that carbon saving. Myo New Street Square allows for the subdivision and reconfiguration of existing spaces with minimal intervention, so future tenants can alter the building sustainably.’
