进口大厦已全面翻新和扩建，提供22万平方英尺高质量的灵活工作空间。增加了新的便利设施，包括有机超市、健身房和绅士咖啡厅，以及生物多样性户外景观公共领域，以创建一个充满活力的新校园和社区。艺术家斯科特·金(ScottKing)的六层高的艺术作品“乌托邦模型”(Model Of Utopia)借鉴了20世纪70年代控制论理论家的作品，展示了一个围绕劳动力需求组织起来的乌托邦社会的模式。

The Import Building has been fully refurbished and extended to provide 220,000 sq ft of high-quality flexible workspace. New amenities added to the development include an organic supermarket, a gym and The Gentleman Barrista cafe, as well as biodiverse outdoor landscaped Public Realm to create a vibrant new campus and neighbourhood. A six-storey high art work on the east facade by artist Scott King, titled Model of Utopia, draws on the work of 1970s cybernetics theorists to illustrate a model of a utopian society organised around the needs of the workforce.

在一楼，西南角增加了一个光滑的两层木材和钢铁覆盖的黑色延伸部分。设计美学继续沿着主要入口立面，原有的后现代建筑的柱廊充满了新的玻璃外墙，延伸到建筑线之外，在底层创造明亮的空间，以容纳引人注目的双高度零售单元。重新设计的立面被许多来自街道的新门刺穿-滑动门打开后的新设计的中庭上-以创造一个更加透明和活跃的街道正面。现有的建筑已油漆马特黑色，以创造一个当代和凝聚力的设计。

On the Ground floor, a sleek, two-storey timber and steel-clad black extension has been added to the south-west corner. The design aesthetic continues along the main entrance façade, with the existing colonnade of the original post-modern building infilled with new glazed facades extending beyond the building line to create brightly lit, open spaces at ground floor level to accommodate dramatic double-height retail units. The redesigned façade is punctured by numerous new doors from the street – with sliding doors opening onto the newly designed atrium at their rear – to create a much more transparent and active street frontage. The existing building has been painted matt black to create a contemporary and cohesive design.

外观细节

一个新的漏斗状的，木质的入口通向10层的中庭.通过插入由胶水层合梁和填充层合板组成的木结构框架进行重新配置，通过向中庭空间的延伸和更好地利用，增加了可使用的楼面面积。暴露的木材装饰创造了温暖，而一个引人注目的墨西哥蓝色楼梯坐落在中庭的心脏。预制钢，这方面的设计导致了前两层，其中打开中庭和方便的位置，促进楼梯的使用。

A new funnel-shaped, timber-clad entrance leads into the 10-storey atrium. Reconfigured through the insertion of a timber structural frame made from glue laminated beams and infill slabs of cross-laminated timber, the useable floor area has been increased through extending into and making better use to the atrium space. The exposed timber finish creates warmth, while a striking Mexico Blue staircase sits at the atrium’s heart. Prefabricated from steel, this faceted design leads to the first two floors, which open onto the atrium and the convenient location promotes stair usage.

“进口建筑”周围的公共领域是一片城市绿洲，既可以容纳人，也可以容纳野生动物，包括隐藏的栖息地，如座位下的鸟笼、植树造林中的昆虫盒子和木材覆盖层后面的蝙蝠箱。大型种植园和水道种植观赏草和水生植物。

The public realm that surrounds the Import Building is intended to be an urban oasis that accommodates both people and wildlife including hidden habitats such as bird boxes under seating, insects’ boxes nestled within planting and a bat box behind timber cladding. Large planters and the waterways are planted with ornamental grasses and aquatic flora.
