Workspaces

A home for London’s entrepreneurial spirit.

6 distinctly individual buildings designed by London’s cutting edge architects and comprising 2 million sq ft of thoughtfully curated workspaces for the people shaping the future of the world’s most exciting city.

“As one of the first two buildings perceived when crossing the bridge from Canary Wharf, 15 Water Street sets the scene for the Wood Wharf community.
The palette-warming red brick and warehouse-style spaces have been designed to attract a mixed community of businesses integrated with residential and retail space.”

“Whether everyone will be working on their laptops, tablets, or VR devices in cafés in the future, we don’t know, but we’re trying to evolve a piece of city for them to come together. The balconies or roof terraces to each floor of 20 Water Street provide breakout space and connect the workplaces with the wider environment.”

“The building’s form is open and honest, establishing a strong but quiet presence on Union Square. Its steel frame is expressed externally, acknowledging the site’s history of dock structures and cranes while lending 
a simplicity and clarity to elevations.”

“The building will be a hive of activity, with its double-height market hall 
at ground level and two-storey rooftop restaurant, it becomes an extension of the public realm, inspiring people to be seamlessly part of the Wood Wharf scene.”

“The corners of the building were designed to act as striking visual markers that respond to sight-lines throughout the masterplan. We’ve exploited those spaces to be social or meeting places on almost every floor in the form of balconies and winter gardens accessible to tenants.”

“When people decide where to work or live, access to a health club is becoming an ever more significant factor. Placemaking landlords such as Canary Wharf Group clearly recognise that Third Space’s unique and tailored proposition can differentiate and add value to their developments.”

“We love to be part of the regeneration of an area, just like when we opened the Hoxton in Shoreditch while it was undergoing its transformation. We want to be ingrained in the fabric. That’s why Wood Wharf is a perfect platform for us to launch.”

“A vibrant, open and naturally lit building that encapsulates the needs of its tenants will most certainly create an atmosphere that will positively affect our wellbeing and help us live longer.”
