refurbishment and conversion of existing Grade II market hall into flexible workspace, Manchester
The Grade II listed market hall in Manchester’s largest conservation area, is the former home of the Air and Space Museum. The building envelope is fully refurbished and the large internal volume sensitively adapted to create a dynamic new workspace destination for city centre Manchester. A new lightweight mezzanine structure sits inside the volume of the hall to provide flexible workspace and office studios. A social hub in the heart of the building provides a central event space with tiered seating and café. A ‘green gally’ runs through the central spine of the building heavily planted to create a unique office environment.
