This interesting building also known as Commonwealth House sits in a prominent position at the corner of New Oxford Street and High Holborn.
Given its distinctive appearance and location, it has become a well-known landmark over the years. Interior works to this Art Deco building included extensive 20mm thick terrazzo flooring across the lobby, communal areas and all lift lobbies in a striking black and white design. Other works on the building involved restoration to aspects of the external cladding and new, green pyrolave cladding to the exterior.
