Google Treasury Building

Project Description

The project involved the redevelopment of the 1940s industrial Bolands Bakery building, which was subsequently redeveloped into the Treasury Building in the 1980’s and is now reimagined and developed as a 21st Century low-carbon building that will be home to some 1,100 new Google employees on completion. In addition, the fit out includes opening up into the adjoining Annex development to operate the Treasury and Annex as one building.
