On Wednesday 20 September there is an evening lecture at the Building Centre in Store Street on two of London's most iconic concrete developments: Centre Point and the White Collar Factory.
The lecture is part of The Concrete Centre's
70 years of Concrete Quarterly exhibition programme, supported by the Built Environment Trust.
Gavin Miller, Partner at Rick Mather Architects, and
Tim Bowder-Ridger, CEO and Senior Partner at Conran and Partners, will discuss Centre Point. The talk will present a preview of the remodelling and refurbishment of Centre Point tower, which has given the concrete icon a new lease of life.
Stephen Taylor, Associate Director of Allford Hall Monaghan Morris (AHMM), and
Rob Partridge, Director of AKT II, will give an insight into the design and collaboration behind the newly completed White Collar Factory. The office development at City Road is a new concept in work place environment, featuring exposed concrete, core cooling and smart technology.
