Chiswick Park

Chiswick Park - Conception

The RRP masterplan consists of twelve buildings with a total of 1.4 million square feet of office space, as well as parking for 1,700 cars, a health club, swimming pool, and brasserie-cafe set within a landscaped public space complete with open-air performance space and pond. These facilities are designed to enhance the work-life balance of the occupants, supporting the concept of social sustainability. The buildings, arranged around the perimeter of the site enjoy views over the park with its central lake with three metre high waterfall, bridge and boardwalks, and extensive soft landscaped areas.

Designed and built in three phases, six four-storey buildings have so far been completed, while a subsequent phase will see a mix of five, nine and twelve-storey high buildings added to complete the development.

Each building at Chiswick Park is standardised taking advantage of off-site construction technology to maximise time and cost benefits. This approach reflects Stanhope’s conviction that a very high quality, distinctive and flexible development can be achieved using standardised components and built to conform to tight commercial constraints. To this end, the office buildings contain highly flexible space that can be configured in open plan or cellular form. Each floor plate can also be let as a single tenancy or as multiple tenancies split into divisions of two, three or four separate, fully independent tenancies.

    Public Realm:

The key feature of the development is the spectacular parkland at the heart of the site, which is open at all times to members of the public.

    Energy:

Passive environmental strategies include retractable fabric blinds and fixed louvres to shade the facades, natural ventilation as well as an air displacement system for heating and cooling and, all contributing to a significant reduction in the need for air-conditioning, and contributing to a high level of comfort in the offices.

    Flexibility:

The design strategy included a flexible approach to possible tenancy types – each office floor is able to operate as a single tenancy or as up to four independent tenancies.
