  • OPPORTUNITY ON A GRAND SCALE

  • A BUILDING REBORN

    With over 160,000 square feet of newly-built office space behind a magnificent classical faade. 55 Colmore row offers you the last word in efficiency, sustainability and employee comfort, combined with an exterior full of character which reflects Birminghams proud industrial past.

    to cap it all, the building stands at the very heart of the central business district, across the road from the citys Cathedral.

    at 55 Colmore row, we have taken a grand victorian terrace and completely re-made the building behind it. We have flooded the interior with natural daylight, and we have rediscovered and restored a magnificent 19th century banking hall, which would serve as your reception.

    When 55 Colmore row was built, the West midlands was the Workshop of the World and Birmingham was its capital. the city suffered during the war and after it as manufacturing declined. now Birmingham is feeling the benefits of the Big City Plan, which is recreating Birmingham as a world class centre for the knowledge-based economy of the future.improved transport infrastructure is an essential component of this plan and will accentuate the benefits of Birminghams location near the centre of the uK. these improvements are set to continue, as Birmingham becomes the hub of Britains new high speed rail network and the airport expansion programme nears completion.

    You might expect all these advantages to come at a high price. if so, you will be pleased to note that office rents in Birmingham are still a fraction of those demanded in the capital.

    it is easy to see why Birmingham is increasingly the first choice for overseas companies setting up in the uK. Currently over 300 have their uK office here.

    Colmore row and its surrounding streets are the civic and commercial heart of the city, where great 19th century buildings mark Birminghams transition from a small market town to a great provincial capital. this has been a conservation area for over 40 years, which has preserved its unique, prestigious character and style.

    today, over 500 companies and 35,000 people work in the Colmore Business District. all the professional services, restaurants and shops you

    need are virtually on your doorstep, while St Philips Cathedral is just the other side of the road. this 18th century architectural gem has four acres of grounds and monuments which provide a green oasis in the centre of the city.

    Both Snow Hill and new Street railway stations are within 5 minutes walk and the area is served by the a38, for access to the m5 and m6 motorways.

    Based in Birmingham, you will find everything you need to make your company successful and to make locating here worthwhile.

    a business is its people and Birmingham offers you a deep pool of intelligent, well-trained and highly motivated staff. the city has three world class universities producing 97,000 graduates each year; it also has Britains first business school, founded

    in 1902 and still a centre of excellence. theres a full range of supporting services, from lawyers and accountants to marketing, i.t. and telecoms. the city is also home to the national exhibition Centre and the international Convention Centre, which host over 200,000 conferences and 320 exhibitions every year.

    Birmingham is europes youngest city, nearly 40% of the population is under 25. it also has a rich and

    harmonious ethnic mix; the city has a lively Chinese quarter and Birmingham is the home of Balti cuisine as well as michelin-starred restaurants.

    Shopping opportunities range from the 850-year old markets to sophisticated centres like mailbox, the Pavilions and the Bullring. Birmingham is also a centre of jewellery design and production; a stroll round the Jewellery Quarter is a fascinating experience.

    Sports enthusiasts can enjoy test cricket, Premiership football and golf at the Belfry, which has hosted more ryder Cup matches than any other venue.

    the citys cultural scene is driven by outstanding venues, world-renowned performers and enthusiastic audiences. the Hippodrome theatre is the most popular in the uK with over half a million tickets sold

    each year and Symphony Hall, home of the City of Birmingham Symphony orchestra is Britains finest concert venue.

    Birmingham has more canals than venice. this was the motorway network of the 18th century, but today the canals are used mainly for leisure pursuits as they fan out into the english countryside.

    away from the crowded South east of england, the counties around Birmingham offer glorious scenery and affordable homes. Youll find the Black Country delightfully green and the Shakespeare Country inspiring, with its castles, gardens and the worlds most famous theatre at Stratford-upon-avon.

    From its position near the centre of the country, Birmingham is the hub of a rail network and a motorway network to london, the West Country and the north.

    it is also scheduled to become the hub of the new High Speed 2 rail network, which would reduce the journey time to london to just 45 minutes, while Birmingham to manchester would take 41 minutes instead of an hour and a half.

    looking further afield, the city has an international airport which is easy to reach from the city centre, it takes just 10 minutes by rail from Birmingham new Street station.Birmingham airport has over 9 million passengers a year

    and has the capacity to handle twice that number. it serves 50 airlines flying to over 100 destinations in europe, the uSa, africa, China and Japan. it has also recently opened a eurojet Business aviation Centre.

    in 2014 the airports runway extension is scheduled for completion. this will improve services on the crucial long- haul routes to Brazil, india and China.

    airport expansion is just one aspect of the 1.3bn of infrastructure investment which is planned for Birmingham over the next few years and which will also fund improvements to local travel, by train, bus and metro.

  • 55 colmore rowSteP inSiDe anD SteP ForWarD

    55 Colmore row is a grade ii listed building in a conservation area. So we have worked in consultation with local groups and organisations to restore the original victorian features, strip out a plethora of recent additions, and create an office space which reflects the pioneering, innovative spirit that made Birmingham such a powerhouse in the first place.

    the main reception area features a superb victorian banking hall designed by Yeoville thomason, who created many of Birminghams finest buildings. this 19th century masterpiece has been hidden away for decades. now fully restored, it encloses the main reception desk and an informal meeting area, where the high ceiling and a light well over the foyer create a feeling of light and space.

    this feeling extends throughout the building, thanks to a central lift atrium and two other light wells which open up the buildings interior.

    at the top of the building, we have created a new 6th floor, whose discreet modern styling is the perfect counterpoint to the ornate architecture below.

  • clASSIcAl elegANcemoDern eFFiCienCY

    55 Colmore row is an ingenious combination of both. take the windows in the classical faade for instance; they have the original victorian stonework, but fitted with the latest high performance glass to minimise heat loss on winter days and cut down the warming effect of the summer sun. the same windows are used in the extended fifth floor and our new sixth floor. the building is fitted, or rather planted, with a brown roof to minimise rainwater run-off, provide effective insulation and create habitats for the widest possible diversity of creatures.

    55 Colmore row is also the first Birmingham building of its size to incorporate a variable refrigeration Flow (vrF) heating and cooling system. this uses air source heat pump technology to minimise energy costs, while creating a comfortable working environment, all year round.
