Design-Led M&E Installation in Shoreditch: Exposed Services Delivered in 10 Weeks
Curtain Road, Shoreditch Office
Owens were proud to be awarded our first combined Mechanical and Electrical project in the artistic heart of Shoreditch—an area known for its creative energy, independent stores and vibrant café culture. The goal was to deliver a high-quality, fully exposed services installation in keeping with the minimalist “Shoreditch look” within a tight 10-week programme.
Solutions
Working closely with Ruggles and Jeffery, CS2 and HDG Properties, our teams delivered a visually striking and technically efficient system that complemented the building’s industrial aesthetic. Engineers worked 7 days a week to meet the deadline, carefully integrating mechanical and electrical elements into the exposed interior. The installation was not only functional but also became a central design feature, with ductwork and lighting contributing to the space’s overall visual appeal.
Benefits
- Bold, modern aesthetic aligned with the Shoreditch design style
- Seamless integration of M&E systems
- Exposed services became a key design feature
- Delivered on time despite tight schedule
- Strong collaboration with project partners
- High client satisfaction with end result
