CONVERSION | ENABLING & ENVELOPE | SHELL & CORE | CAT A/A+/B

Bloom converted this 27,000 sq ft art-deco era warehouse in to Grade A office space and studios.

The initial phase of works included surveys and validations, asbestos removal, demolition, and new roofing. This has been followed by cut and carve modifications to the external envelope and a full internal refurbishment including a brand new MEP services install with new utilities. 

Innovations / Efficiencies realised:

  • Care was taken during the initial demolition work to clean and store the blockwork so that this could be used during the construction phase – reducing costs and waste.
  • Early investigations and surveys were conducted to identify potential issues, minimise disruption and de-risk the project before refurbishment works commenced.
  • We created efficiencies in programme delivery and £10,000s in savings were delivered through meticulous phase planning.

“We love working with Bloom on retrofit projects. They take the time to understand the core of what we are trying to achieve with our design intent. Then, they go on to protect it throughout the construction process, with excellent site management, all the way to the final product.”
