The Gramophone Works in London reimagines a 120-year-old structure on the Grand Union Canal as a multifunctional office space. Phase 1, completed in 2018, included refurbishing and redeveloping the Saga Centre warehouse. Phase 2 expanded and extended the Old Gramophone Works building upward into a six-storey timber-framed office.
The upward expansion of Gramophone Works utilised CLT and glulam as the primary structural materials. The lightweight glass-clad extension ensures environmental efficiency, making it one of Europe’s largest wood-framed office buildings.
