Project
Chiswick Park is a 1.3 million ft² office development in West London, designed by the Richard Rogers Partnership for Stanhope. The aim was to create an enjoyable working environment to attract and retain employees. The 33 acres of landscaped public space included an open-air performance area, a lake, hard landscaping, and perimeter car parking. The challenge was to create a park-like exterior that contrasted with the formal ‘inner gardens’ in the entrance atria.
Solution
Marshalls supplied 2500 m² of Silver Grey Conservation X paving and 4000 metres of kerb for Phase 1. The silver-grey paving complemented the stainless steel buildings and reflected the site's high-quality aesthetic. Additionally, over 14,000 m² of Keyblok was supplied for the underground parking areas, with the ‘Bracken’ colourway adding brightness.
Outcome
Chiswick Park won the British Council for Offices’ ‘Best of the Best’ Award for its high-class pedestrianised landscaping and strong brand identity. The RIBA praised the juxtaposition of the rectilinear building with the creative, soft landscape and noted the quality of materials. The Conservation Paving's subtle colour and finish complemented the architectural value of the buildings, enhancing the overall development.
