A 10-storey building by dRMM has been given the green light by City of London planners
The scheme at 51-54 Fenchurch Street features an all-glass curtain wall system which is broken up by solid, Portland Stone-coloured panels.
Sadie Morgan, director, said: “The façade treatment will be a world first. It combines an abstraction of Portland Stone with an all-glass façade, the effect of which will mean the building’s shifted form blends with its surroundings.â€
It is the practice’s first major office block in the Square Mile and will increase the existing building’s floorspace by 2,000sq m to nearly 6,500sq m.
The building is being developed by Aviva Life & Pensions UK and will be let either as a headquarters building or on a floor-by-floor basis.
