The judges commended the scheme as a benchmark for excellence in workplaces.

Scott Brownrigg Architects carefully designed St. James’s Place’s new office as a high quality building, which is complementary to the existing local architecture.  The 50,000 sq ft  building was completed in October 2016 and provides an appropriately elegant new addition to Cirencester, whilst reinforcing the commitment of St James’s Place to a long term future in the town. The design intent for the new development was to create an elegant contemporary office building to sit in harmony with the existing St. James’s Place building.

Director Ed Hayden and Associate Elizabeth Thompson collected the award on the 4^th May at the prize giving in Bristol.
