Mace wins £150m London Berkeley Square revamp

Mace has confirmed the signing of a pre-construction services agreement to redevelop Lansdowne House in London’s Mayfair.The 10-storey office scheme at the southern end of Berkeley Square will be constructed with a ‘sway frame’ structure to extend the building’s potential for re-use.Designed by architects AHMM with a ‘long life and loose fit concept’, this structural design allows larger floor plates and a centralised core that can be adapted and re-used for future owners without requiring the building to be demolished.Developer CO—RE and asset manager Audley Property are bringing forward the 225,000 sq ft offices, with 14,000 sq ft of shops and restaurants at ground level.The project is targeting both BREEAM Outstanding and WELL Platinum ratings to promote sustainability and enhance occupier wellbeing.Openable windows will provide fresh air, with floor to ceiling heights maximising daylight.The redevelopment will also include an outdoor rooftop terrace and balconies on every floor overlooking Berkeley Square.Ged Simmonds, Managing Director of Offices for Mace Construct, said that enabling works are now underway, with the project scheduled to complete in 2028.
