  • Insurers Migrating South?
    Insurers Migrating South? Latest research by Newton Perkins has identified a shifting of the sands within the EC3 postcode over Summer/Autumn as several high profile insurance occupiers have announced their intention to relocate to buildings south of the "Lloyds Triangle". Let’s start with a little background. The EC3 postcode has historically been, and remains, the focal point of the UK wholesale insurance sector. The London market wrote a staggering £17bn of premium business last year. The hub within EC3 is the iconic 1986 Richard Rogers designed Lloyd’s building on Lime Street. Many underwriters and higher profile brokers are only willing to consider offices in the immediate surrounds. The vicinity (known as the “Lloyd’s Triangle”) has maintained and indeed increased its allure for world leading insurers such as Willis and AON (to be joined shortly by W R Berkley with their so called "Scalpel" building) siting their HQ's overlooking Lloyd’s. Indeed, the lack of supply in the traditional “Triangle” is prompting top City rents to be paid even in locations just outside the traditional definition of the “Triangle” (such as Ascot Underwriting committing to £70 per sq ft for a floor at the new Canary Wharf/Land Securities development at 20 Fenchurch St). Our research has now confirmed a willingness to look outside the "Triangle“ and the attached map shows 15 of the more significant re- locations over the past two years. The latest affirmation was last month's confirmation of the pre-letting of half (85,000 sq ft) of 70 Mark Lane by Miller Insurance who will move from Jewry Street in 2015.

Primarily they’re working to develop an economically and environmentally sound mountain ecosystem to improve the livelihoods of mountain populations. They needed a new brand, website, photography and a solid set of guidelines in order to generate publications, books and web pages themselves. I developed an extensive set of templates and guidelines which can be used in an endless variety of ways to keep the them appearing fresh and different, but at the same time consistently looking and behaving as one organisation. The identity subtly highlights two of their key areas: Mountains and Water. 2 ALEX TREADWAY / DESIGN & PHOTOGRAPHY ICIMOD PASSING THE BATON ICIMOD publish a large amount of materials which are almost exclusively produced themselves by their in-house design team. They needed a set of guidelines which would cater for a vast array of different formats and content. I gave them an intuitive system which could adapt as necessary but at the same time be ever-so- simple to use. Now they’re doing it all themselves. 3 ALEX TREADWAY / DESIGN & PHOTOGRAPHY ICIMOD 4 ALEX TREADWAY / DESIGN & PHOTOGRAPHY ICIMOD ICIMOD PHOTOGRAPHY As well as re-establishing ICIMOD’s branding I also travalled to all of their member countries to generate an entire port folio of photography.

  • 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of A
    Committee: Date: Planning and Transportation 28 February 2017 Subject: Public 22 Bishopsgate London EC2N 4BQ Construction of a building arranged on three basement floors, ground and 58 upper floors plus mezzanines and plant comprising floorspace for use within Classes A and B1 of the Use Classes Order and a publicly accessible viewing gallery and facilities (sui generis); hard and soft landscaping works; the provision of ancillary servicing and other works incidental to the development. (201,449sq.m. GEA) Ward: Lime Street For Decision Registered No: 16/01150/FULEIA Registered on: 24 November 2016 Conservation Area: St Helen's Place Listed Building: No Summary The planning application relates to the site of the 62 storey tower (294.94m AOD) granted planning permission in June 2016 and which is presently being constructed. The current scheme is for a tower comprising 59 storeys at ground and above (272.32m AOD) with an amended design to the top. The tapering of the upper storeys previously approved has been omitted and replaced by a flat topped lower tower. In other respects the design of the elevations remains as before. The applicants advise that the lowering of the tower in the new proposal is in response to construction management constraints in relation to aviation safeguarding issues. The planning application also incorporates amendments to the base of the building, the public realm and to cycle space provision which were proposed in a S73 amendment application and which your Committee resolved to grant on 28 November 2016, subject to a legal agreement but not yet issued. The building would provide offices, retail at ground level, a viewing gallery with free public access at levels 55 and 56 and a public restaurant and bar at levels 57 and 58.

Reinke FAIA RIBA Director, Stephan Reinke Architects Level 02, 28 Margaret Street, London W1W 8RZ Abstract As the workplace evolves in our vertical cities, the need for “think spaces” and the public realm to meet, create and innovate will become integral to tall buildings. These people places are designed to address the social challenges and enhance the co- working environments which are emerging in the dense urban context of our future cities. The design of sky terraces and the “spaces between” offer a greener, more humane and smarter work environment for the future. The public realm should no longer be held down, fixed to the ground plane, but rather become part and parcel of the upper levels of our workplace centers.
