On Thursday 12th September, HT Associate Director Hugo Braddick took part in an online webinar ‘designing sustainable, employee-centric warehouses’ alongside Holly Lewis, Co-founding partner, We Made That, Mike Teague, Head of Industrial & Logistics at Corstophine & Wright and others. The event was chaired by Architecture Today’s Jason Sayer.
They gathered to discuss a new demand in the market for commissioned work on light industrial spaces with new regulations around sustainability and wellbeing. Hugo presented our recently completed Industria project in Barking for client BeFirst, a multi-level industrial building designed to maximise efficiency, sustainability, and community integration.
The design helps connect workers with nature, a rarity in industrial settings, and contributes to the building’s sustainable credentials. Shared amenities, including a public café and business hub, foster a sense of community, while the upper floors offer breakout spaces for relaxation and socialisation.
