Developer Southern Grove is to build a £33m, six-storey office block in London using cross laminated timber (CLT).
The 4,530 sq m scheme on the border with Haggerston in Shoreditch will be designed by CLT specialist architects Waugh Thistleton, which has also been responsible for the nearby 6 Orsman Road block, also constructed with CLT.
Southern Grove’s new building at 16 Orsman Road will feature a terracotta façade and will be four to five times lighter than a traditional building, resulting in smaller foundations and minimal disruption to the neighbouring Grand Union canal.
