Old Street Yard

COMMERCIAL OFFICE | DESIGN & BUILD | CAT B FIT OUT

Bloom delivered a design and build contract to refurbish and modernise multiple units at Old Street Yard for Derwent London. 

Using the client brief, we developed the design in-house with architects Able Partners to help Derwent London market the units to new tenants. The work included stripping out existing walls, services, and finishes. New drywall and glazed crittall-style partitions were installed to create new spaces, along with MEPH modifications, kitchenettes, and finishes. 

Innovations / Efficiencies realised:

  • Our technology-led scanning approach enhanced project efficiency by reducing site visits for decision-making, streamlining communication, and enabling more flexible management of the refurbishment process.
  • On Level 3, we implemented our “Bloom bars” solution to the existing glazed screens, improving the space’s aesthetic appeal.
  • Carpet tiles from “low traffic” areas of the previous fit-out were reused in the meeting rooms, reducing waste delivering a small but welcome saving to the client’s budget.

“Bloom worked with us to find innovative ways to achieve the budget without compromising the quality, agreed the scope and costs rapidly with an open approach to cost and programme. Works were undertaken without complaint from any of the adjacent occupiers and they received a glowing report from the Building Management Team.”
