Tothill Street, London

New space for the House of Commons on Tothill Street, London

This 7-storey building is located in St James in London within a conservation area. The project involved extensive alteration, extension and refurbishment to provide 58878 sq ft of modern office space. The new reception area was conceived as a modern intervention within this period building. It respects tradition by using natural stone, echoing the colour of the building itself and its proportions and detail compliment the feel and scale of this Edwardian edifice. The building was completed in 2007 and successfully let to the House of Commons.
