84 Albion Street, Leeds

84 Albion Street is located in the heart of the city centre and only five minutes’ walk from Leeds Train Station. The project includes an eye-catching new Ground Floor reception fronting Albion Street and the extensive re-modelling and refurbishment of the building’s upper floors to deliver approximately 18,000sqft of column-free, contemporary office space.

Fuse was appointed as Architects and Interior Designers for a project where the Commercial Estates Group was specifically looking for a design practice to meet their brief “To break the mould of traditional office refurbishment and offer something different to the market.” The result is a significant new addition to the Leeds office market that will offer occupiers multi-floor or single floor spaces of approximately 3,500sqft.

Unusually, the building occupants also benefits from a newly created external roof terrace that offers fantastic break-out space, above the hustle and bustle of the city centre. Working with Fuse on this project were Fox Lloyd Jones, who acted as Cost and Construction Management Consultants and MRB Consulting who provided Building Services advice.

The scheme was marketed by joint letting agents: WSB and Fox Lloyd Jones with construction work completed in 2012.

84 Albion Street is a great example of how a relatovely modest budget, spent wisely, can utterly transform and re-position commercial property.
