This historic address presents the opportunity for a dynamic tall building, which responds to its direct context as well as function. The building is a series of faceted planes and articulated core elements, coherently drawn together to form a slender, elegant tower.

The dramatic form of the building is accentuated by an extended light mast providing a distinctive signature on the skyline. The building’s base responds to the existing scale of Colmore Row with a grand colonnade delivering a new public space.

The building will achieve a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ rating and deliver 30% reduction in CO2 emissions beyond current regulations. It will also provide enhanced site biodiversity through the living green roof, reduction in resource consumption and parking facilities for bicycles.
