Welcome to London's future workplace, HYLO: A basecamp for brilliance. Designed by HCL Architects and modelled by Stiff + Trevillion interior designers, the building offers 258,000 square feet of premium CAT A and CAT B office space and 17,000 square feet of retail space. Providing the perfect platform for startups and global brands, HYLO offers the ideal destination for occupiers seeking a smart, modern workplace designed with health, well-being, and sustainability.
Built for the future, the project strengthened the original structure and added 13 additional stories to meet occupation demands, incorporating four private terraces and a communal business lounge. Using the superstructure of the original building helped save over 2,500 tonnes of CO2, alongside a further 750 tonnes that would have been wasted if the building had been demolished and rebuilt from scratch. Compared to leasing a new building, these green initiatives will generate a carbon savings of around 25% over a typical 10-year lease. Boasting a BREAAM Rating of Excellent, an EPC A Rating, and CO2 emissions 35% below 2013 PartL.
The careful consideration of the building's design has been widely recognised with various awards presented to HYLO in 2022, including the RICS Award for Best Commercial Development, the Supreme Award for Structural Engineering Excellence, the Tall Building Award for Best Mixed-Use Building, and the Winner of Winners Award by the Tall Building Awards, securing HYLO as London's future workplace.
