Our renovation works of the 1908 warehouses showcase the previous paper production factories original features, including cast-iron columns, exposed brickwork and impressive vaulted ceilings. We added a plant room, a new lift shaft and car, and a fifth-floor level of tenant space with new daylighting introduced to maximise the lettable area.
