RocketSpace provides speed and direction to the world’s top tech start-ups and corporate innovators. Their London tech campus, based in Regents House, was their first beyond San Francisco and the result of a successful partnership with NatWest.
The fit-out and restoration of 1980s Regents House (formerly a cash handling facility for RBS ) provides RocketSpace and their high-growth tech start-up business members with 9,000m2 flexible working space.
Set over four floors, including a former underground bank vault, our design strips back the building to its original structural core.
The loading bays have been converted into an impressive double height event space. Upper floors provide open plan dedicated workspaces and cellular office suite spaces using over 700 linear meters of high performance acoustic glazing.
Core structures are complemented with a utilitarian approach to building services, using NASA labs as inspiration. Bespoke workstations, exposed services, clean lines and metallic colours provide a backdrop to brand messaging and wayfinding, giving spaces individuality.
The basement and upper floors of Regents House have gone from an underutilised legacy building to a fit for purpose technology campus where ambitious start-ups will develop the next billion dollar company.
