Designed by Allies and Morrison, 100 Bishopsgate is a robust, meticulously detailed commercial office building that is adaptable for future changes but also seeks to restores the City of London’s old city fabric. The building’s form is simple yet dynamic, transitioning from a parallelogram at its base to a rectangle at the crown, resolving the complex step change from intimate urban grain at ground level to a tower housing highly efficient commercial floor plates.
This intricate geometric interplay produces both sheer and articulated tectonic facade expressions and results in an efficient footprint that maximizes the development opportunity, responding to both the urban context and modern agile office requirements while also creating the largest column-free flexible floor plates in the City.
