该项目有五层灵活的办公空间。底层被称为工厂层，作为新企业的孵化器，通过增加Folkestone的创意区来帮助当地经济，而剩下的层则容纳灵活的办公空间和会议室。一个历史性的立面被修复并保留下来，就像漂浮在起伏的玻璃前一样。新的黑色的正面与一个新的起伏的玻璃墙，坐在旁边，是周围的玻璃提供了一个线索，从外部的现代工作大楼后面。

The project houses five level of flexible office space. The ground floor is referred to as the Factory Floor and functions as an incubator for new businesses starting up to aid the local economy by adding to Folkestone’s creative quarter, while the remaining levels accommodate flexible office spaces and meeting rooms. A historical façade has been restored and retained and sits as if floating in front of the undulating glass. The new black colour of the facade contrasts with a new undulating glass wall that sits alongside, it is the surrounding glass that gives a clue from the exterior of the modern working building behind.

客户非常前瞻，想要创造一个轻松有趣的工作环境。作为对这种理念的回应，上层是通过一个工业滑梯连接起来的，它提供了快速的楼层间循环，提供了一个灵活的工作空间和一个活泼的工作环境。第四层是在装修过程中增加的，从正面向后倾斜，形成了一个朝南的阳台，可以俯瞰大海。

The client is very forward-thinking and wanted to create a relaxed, fun working environment. In response to this philosophy, the upper floors are connected by an industrial slide which provides quick circulation between the floors, providing a flexible workspace with a lively working environment. The fourth floor, which was added during the renovation, is set back from the facade, creating a south-facing balcony looking out towards the sea.

设计是复杂的建筑，立面必须在施工期间暂停，以插入周围的当代玻璃外观，其弯曲起伏的输入到历史的原始立面，在那里旧的相遇新。这种有机的玻璃元素优雅地将光线过滤到内部办公空间中。该设计的特点是额外的上层，这是从现有的正面线设置。这创造了一个朝南的外部阳台空间，它使用现有的立面作为栏杆，可以俯瞰该镇和英吉利海峡。

The design was complex to build, with the facade having to be suspended during construction to insert the surrounding contemporary glass facade whose curving undulations feed into the historical original facade, where old meets new. This organic glazed element elegantly filters light into the internal office spaces. The design features an additional upper floor, which is set back from the existing facade line. This creates a south facing external balcony space, which uses the existing façade as a balustrade giving a view over the town and towards the English Channel.
