Bloomberg European HQ London by Foster + Partners

1. Collaboration and team work : Track through in virtually every area of


the building whether it’s a convening spaces that allow people to come
together. It’s the ramp that allows people to circulate and exchange
briefly on their way.
2. The Breathing building : They introduce openings all around the building
largely in the bronze fins that self shade the façade. The rear face of
them is an opening vent that enables air to pass through, be drawn
across the floor plates and then go up through the void around the
central ramp and out trough the roof light at the top.
3. Quality of the materials : All of the stone work is in large part hand
finished and hand crafted. The stone comes from a quarry on the
Yorkshire Derbyshire border the ceiling were manufactured in South
Glamorgan.
4. Public Space : They give some space back to public to have some calm in
the city. Mithras museum is a free place for people to go and have an
appreciation of history.
5. Acoustic Lightings : The petals increase the surface area and that is all
within hundred mill dept. The lighting is also key feature within the
panel that provides a lux level of 300 lux. It give a super uniformity
because of the spread of the LEDs across the space and also the
acoustics even with the metal petals covering the ceiling. It’s give very
good acoustic absorption performance as well.
