CLIENT: Scotish Widows investment partnership
ARCHITECT: Eric Parry Architects
VALUE: £1,930 (2009)
The project comprised a large office development of approximately 16,660 square meters of office floor space arranged over 7 storeys. The approximate overall budget was £25,000,000 and the stone supply was completed in July 2001. Situated in the business Centre of London in one of the London Borough of Camden's conservation areas, 27-30 Finsbury Square utilised the traditional Portland Stone element of the surrounding buildings and combined it with contemporary design practices.
The building was constructed with approximately 370 massive post-tensioned stone structural columns. The columns were typically 1000mm x 400mm x 3300mm and were created out of 4 pieces of cut Bowers Basebed with 1.5mm tolerances. These were then assembled without vertical joints and tensioned off site by Szerelmeys Limited with each column taking approximately two weeks to complete.
