One Portwall Square, Portwall Lane, Bristol, BS1 6BH

Description
One Portwall Square is a new kind of office designed to meet the needs of today’s workforce. It delivers new standards in innovation, post-Covid occupant amenity and office design, combining modern and flexible floorplates with generosity of space and light.

One Portwall Square is designed to create a vibrant and adaptable workplace that sets a new bar for offices in Bristol.

An efficient, flexible floorplate can easily accommodate different styles of occupation. Simple layouts and minimal ceiling mounted services mean spaces are adaptable to evolving customer requirements. No suspended ceilings to rip out and replace. Fewer moving parts. Easier to move in, simpler to move out.

Location
Less than five minutes’ walk from Temple Meads Station, and adjacent to Metrobus, airport express bus and cycleway links, the location is one of the most well-connected in the South West.

Wellness
We know what makes people feel comfortable in their environment. A new landscaped square to the south. External terraces on every floor. Windows that open and put people in control. A better ventilation and mixed-mode system that uses only fresh air. High ceilings. Outstanding changing and cycle facilities. A primary stair open to the reception. All informed design choices that add up to a building that just feels good.

Sustainability and Energy
High performance glazing and insulation and concrete core cooling work together to bring expected energy use well below a comparable new building, while rooftop solar panels supply free electricity to the common areas and lifts. Heating and hot water will be by the District Heating Network, providing cheaper and lower carbon than gas boilers. The building will be EPC A.

Parking and Access
7 car spaces of which 1 is wheelchair accessible. 1 electric vehicle charging point. 62 cycle spaces in a secure parking store on the ground floor. 4 visitor cycle spaces in Portwall Square. 62 lockers adjacent to the cycle store.

Terraces and External Space
