Mace has been selected to build a new office development in Farringdon, London.

The firm was appointed by Helical plc and its JV partners, Ashby Capital, as its construction partner to develop 33 Charterhouse Street.

Located adjacent to Farringdon Station, opposite the future Museum of London, the 200,000 sq ft scheme will provide over 10 floors of technology enhanced office space, including three terraces and extensive views across central London.

The scheme will feature an integrated digital platform that will improve the building's operational efficiency and support the workspace wellbeing experience for its occupiers, through an employee engagement app.


The design of 33 Charterhouse Street was awarded the UK's first BREEAM 2018 new construction rating of 'Outstanding'.

Mace's team will apply its sustainability expertise to reduce the embodied carbon through a variety of measures including, low carbon materials such as 'Earth Friendly Concrete' and sustainable design measures such as a connection to Citigen's district energy network to supply heating and cooling demand, solar PV panels and a biodiverse green roof.

Gareth Lewis, CEO for Construction at Mace, said: "We are excited to take on the delivery of 33 Charterhouse Street for Helical plc. The project marks the continuation of our collaborative working relationship, and we are delighted to be the contractor of choice. The scheme's challenges play to our strengths and Mace is committed to delivering an exceptional office space at 33 Charterhouse Street."
