Innovative reinvention. Local regeneration. Sustainability in action. This reimagined corporate head office is set to become the place to work and play in London’s St Paul’s.
Once just another 1980s office block, BT’s former HQ is being given an imaginative second life. The telecoms firm has relocated to a new base in Aldgate, and work is now underway to repurpose and transform its former home. And from 2025, it won’t just be workers who can enjoy Panorama St Paul’s – alongside modern, open-plan offices, there will be rooftop dining terraces looking out on St Paul’s Cathedral, a retail arcade and even a wildflower meadow, all open to the public.
As well as becoming one of the most energy-efficient buildings in the City, Panorama St Paul’s will also be noticeably verdant – several floors will be fringed with green, as terrace areas decked with plants complement the building’s workspaces.
Pursuing a sustainable world on Iceland’s largest ever infrastructure programme.
As Iceland's largest airport, Keflavik’s ideal location provides not only an important gateway for tourism, but a central hub, crucial in export of Icelandic goods across the world. And in 2015, Iceland’s national airport provider, Isavia, published its 25-year plan for the continued expansion of Keflavik as the major North Atlantic base for air traffic, further boosting the airport's value as an engine for the country’s economic growth. We’re proud to be working with Isavia to deliver on that vision.
Our 30-strong team provides a full range of programme management services across the project, including sustainability. Two environmental specialists sit within the Mace project design teams, and a social value expert is embedded into the community, stakeholders, and supply chain.
In 2012 Highways England appointed Mace to provide project management support to help improve one of the country’s most notoriously congested roads.
The A14 is a 130-mile link between the Midlands and the east coast of England. It serves some of the country’s fastest growing towns, but its congestion is impeding local and national growth.
Mace provided project management and leadership to an integrated team during the planning, design and construction of a new 21-mile stretch of road between Cambridge and Huntingdon. It’s the first time Highways England used this collaborative approach and it set a benchmark for the speed and efficiency of developing schemes of this scale.
The scheme included a 12-mile bypass, crossing the River Great Ouse and East Coast Main Line railway, which diverted traffic away from Huntingdon.
We rejuvenated one of London’s favourite visitor destinations while complementing the iconic vibe that makes Camden so unique.
As part of the ongoing regeneration of London's vibrant Camden Town we were appointed in 2015 as the main contractor for the first phase of the Camden Lock Village development, which includes residential and high-quality public realm construction.
When completed, the village will feature eight new buildings between three and nine storeys in height, housing a new canal-side market, cafes and restaurants, a cinema, 195 residential units, a food quarter and commercial space. They will be integrated into the neighbourhood via several new pedestrian routes and open air public spaces.
A hub of scientific innovation for over 75 years, the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus plays a pivotal role in driving UK research and development - bringing together the world’s brightest minds, in state-of-the-art facilities, to solve today’s challenges.
Home to more than 200 organisations including Siemens, Thales and the European Space Agency, this 700-acre site acts as a showcase for UK science and its considerable ambition.
In support of the campus’ ground-breaking work, Mace was appointed by the Southern Construction Framework in 2017 to deliver three cutting-edge research facilities - the Rosalind Franklin Institute, the National Satellite Test Facility and the Extreme Photonics Applications Centre - all of which are funded by UK Research and Innovation and presented complex design and construction challenges.
The homecourt flagship project in Barcelona was Mace’s first appointment with Adidas. Acting as project manager and cost consultant, the project was an exciting and fast moving development to deliver one new, distinctive flagship store from two separate retail units.
The store is in the very heart of Barcelona’s bustling shopping district and located in a 125-year-old building on one of the city’s most prestigious streets. It is surrounded by upmarket retailers, restaurants and residents, all of whom had to be considered as part of the delivery.
We were responsible for finding specific solutions to a number of unique challenges outlined by Adidas. Creating more space for products and displays was an additional requirement. Using the space adjacent to the existing store, the Mace team were able to create a total of 1700sq m of space distributed across two floors.
Defying the odds to deliver a landmark aviation construction project in Ireland, we created a new transatlantic gateway able to accommodate millions more passengers, while maintaining the full airport operation.
Our client Dublin Airport Authority faced a chronic problem of over-congestion. As a result we were appointed to help meet their two primary success criteria, which were to increase the overall capacity of the airport to 35 million passengers a year, while minimising disruption to people using the airport every day.
With careful planning, innovative use of prefabrication technologies and leadership in mutual cooperation, we were able to successfully deliver the terminal within the challenging 34 month programme.
We helped to devise a sequence of temporary roads and access points to the construction site that didn’t impact on the airport traffic, allowing for business as usual.
Modernising the Swindon to Bristol railway, offering millions of passengers a year faster, greener, quieter and more reliable journeys.
As the appointed development and delivery partner for the electrification of the highly complex Great Western Main Line’s Bath Corridor, we drew on our expert knowledge to deliver this project on time and with significant cost savings.
As the route crosses a World Heritage site in Bath and an area of outstanding natural beauty, we gave significant consideration to environmental affects and amended more than one hundred structures before the work could take place safely. To enable room for new trains and overhead electric equipment, we lowered the track under 115 bridges and parapets and along 1.83 miles inside the famous Box Tunnel.
Creating the perfect eco-friendly learning environment.
Founded in 1826, University College London has long been one of the world’s finest higher education institutions - attracting students from across the globe and delivering ground-breaking research. Mace’s relationship with UCL dates back to 1999 and with a strong understanding of our client’s ambitions and values, we were appointed from Stage 4 design to act as the main contractor and designer.
The Student Centre, built between listed buildings, is spread across eight floors and centred around a striking atrium, providing a place for all students to study, learn, think, collaborate and explore. It’s also a hub for social activity with event space, prayer and meditation rooms, and a student enquiries centre for disability, mental health and wellbeing support.
