Portico at LaSalle: Focus Space in a Historic London Building

Portico at LaSalle: Focus Space in a Historic London Building

When a workspace is fitted out before a tenant is found, every element has to suit a wide range of businesses. That was the brief for LaSalle Investment Management at the Greycoat Stores building in Westminster, where Workplace Creations transformed two floors of a historic warehouse into a CAT A+ workplace ready for any occupier.

A characterful backdrop for any business

The design preserves the building's industrial heritage, with exposed brick, industrial pillars and beams and warm timber finishes, while offering a variety of settings, from traditional desk banks to relaxed collaboration zones and tucked-away meeting spaces. The result has a welcoming, clubhouse feel that can adapt to whoever moves in.

Why Portico suits a speculative fit-out

Whatever business takes the space, its people will need somewhere to take a quick call or focus without interruption. Portico provides that touchdown focus space with all the essential features of an acoustic booth, and its neutral finishes mean it sits comfortably within any brand. For landlords and agents, that makes it a safe, practical choice that adds immediate value to a CAT A+ offer.

Supporting sustainable buildings

Sustainability was central to the project, and Portico contributes to several BREEAM criteria relating to health and wellbeing, materials and waste, thanks to carefully sourced materials and the design of the pod itself. Alongside energy-efficient lighting, optimised acoustics and easily reconfigured layouts, it helps make the space as responsible as it is attractive.
