Greenpeace

Architecture00 oversaw the comprehensive interior refit of Greenpeace UK’s Headquarters, in Central London, to reflect their evolving working methods and technologies. The works were phased to be carried out on a one floor per year basis, to both align with budget expenditure and allow the building to remain operational throughout. The five storey  1920’s light industrial building, was used as laboratories prior to being obtained by Greenpeace and was converted to be its HQ in the early 1990’s. A newly inserted central stair is the principal means of circulation in the building, so construction access and deliveries have to be sensitively planned to avoid disruption to the building users. Best practice in selection of sustainable building products and managing construction waste with a restricted site, were also important to the client. Architecture00 worked closely with sister company, furniture specialists, Opendesk, to deliver the project to tightly defined timescales.
