Good to see this hybrid CLT and steel vertical extension above an existing office building just off London’s Oxford Circus, is ready to receive its new tenants. The scheme, by Barr Gazeta Architects, creates a new 5th floor along with a new roof terrace at 27 Mortimer Street. Existing communal areas have also been refurbished and a new reception area created. Overall the scheme will provide approximately 13,500 sq ft of Category A and B workspace. G-frame were responsible for the design, supply and installation of the CLT infill panels that create the 5th floor. Due to the building’s Central London location and the extremely tight site, logistics were complex and access to install the CLT was limited to weekends only.
