Office Space in Town, one of the UK’s leading serviced office providers, has announced the opening of its latest stunning serviced office development at 22 Tudor Street, in the heart of London’s prestigious Midtown district. The building has just completed an extensive £8.5 million refurbishment and is now open to clients.
The new 37,500 sq ft building has been designed and developed in collaboration with Sam Kopsch Studio, with commercial workplace design specialists Area, overseeing the fit-out. Inspired by the theme of ‘happiness’, intended to help boost productivity and wellness in a professional setting, Blackfriars @ 22 Tudor Street will offer office spaces for between two and seventy people on flexible terms.
Opening its doors yesterday, the new development provides over 475 workstations split over five floors, each with its own individual, vivid colour treatment. The building will offer clients the choice of nine bespoke meeting rooms inspired by the theme of ‘What makes you happy?’. From a quirky hot air balloon, to an aquatic haven, deep down ‘under the sea’ theme – each meeting room is designed to surprise and inspire.
The building also offers clients a host of lounges, free break-out spaces, communal kitchen areas, a gym studio, cycle-storage, shower facilities and sit-stand desks as standard. To encourage wellbeing and mindfulness in the workplace, a number of inspirational wall-graffiti quotes on the theme of happiness can be found throughout.
The new office will provide some of the City’s most sophisticated office space. The building boasts the first UK installation of View Dynamic Glass – intelligent, electrochromic windows that automatically tint to maximise natural light and reduce heat and glare. The building benefits from the most-up to date technology, with a Wired Score rating of Gold, high standard soundproofing and individually controlled air conditioning, to support clients’ growth and business needs.
Located in London’s Midtown district, Blackfriars @ 22 Tudor Street offers companies excellent commuter and transport links. It is well-served with tube and bus connections – Blackfriars Station is only a four-minute walk and Temple and City Thameslink stations are also within a short distance, providing easy access to London’s City, Gatwick and Luton airports.
Office Space in Town Blackfriars will be led and managed by an experienced team: Roy Jones, General Manager, and Antoinette Byfield, Operations Manager, with a dedicated customer service and conferencing team – ensuring the same level of service excellence that can be experienced in all of OSiT’s serviced offices.
The acquisition of 20-22 Tudor Street in August last year complements OSiT’s existing portfolio of six unique, luxury central London serviced offices across prime London locations including Euston Tower, Liverpool Street, St Paul’s, Waterloo, Monument and Mayfair all of which enjoy an average occupancy rate of 92%. Office Space in Town celebrated its tenth birthday in May of this year.
