Orbit Architects

Summer memories🌅 Orbit’s site visits this summer took us across some of London's most dynamic locations! From the charm of Aldgate to the luxurious streets of Mayfair, the cultural vibrancy of the Barbican, and the bustling City of London, as well as a journey along the river Thames, we've been fully immersed in the heart of the city. Each project we worked on this season reflects our passion for shaping spaces that inspire. We're excited to share glimpses of our journey and the progress we've made on these incredible projects.

📢 Press Features - Beton We’re excited to share that our latest co-working project, Beton by Spacemade, has been featured in both Wallpaper* and Mix Interiors . Wallpaper* praises the design as “a mix of Insta-friendly modernism, with well specced seating, desks, lighting and accessories, as well as stripped-back finishes on walls and ceilings that reveal the guts of the original building and also maximise the available space.” Mix Interiors calls it “a dynamic workspace that recognises the importance of in-person collaboration in our increasingly remote, digital age.” We wholeheartedly agree!

Project Reveal - Exchequer Court Orbit is excited to share our recent work at Exchequer Court, where we led the design and delivery of the top floor workplace. This project marks the culmination of over six years of involvement with this iconic building in the City of London, where we've carefully balanced continuity with innovation. Our approach offered a dual solution - one half of the floor was designed as CAT A, ready for immediate occupancy. The other half was designed as CAT B for the client, ensuring a seamless integration of the interiors with the existing design language of the building. One of the key challenges was to create a space that complemented the existing aesthetics of the interiors, while offering a distinctive environment for the new occupants. This required a fit-out strategy that not only aligned with the rest of the building, but also addressed the complexities of working within an older structure.

⛴️ A summer day on a boat Orbit had an insightful tour on a London Clipper recently, to take a closer look at our Tideway Central project from the perspective of the River Thames. Orbit is providing architectural support and guidance for the delivery of kiosks situated along Kirtling street, as well as on the Chelsea, Albert, Victoria and Blackfriars Embankments. The kiosks will enhance the impressive public realm accommodating public cafes and mechanical equipment servicing the super sewer project from Tideway. Whilst the tour took in the beautiful sights of London on a hot summer's day, we also had the opportunity to listen to the Tideway London team about the history of the River Thames, how London’s sewage system came to be, and how Tideway is carrying on the good work of Sir Joseph Bazalgette. Today, Tideway is expanding on the vast sewage network below London with the Super Sewer solution. A tunnel 25 km long and 7.2 metres in diameter, which is due to be completed in 2025, which will protect the river for at least the next 100 years. We would like to thank the Tideway team for their hospitality and sharing their knowledge on the vast project spanning across London. We can’t wait to share the photography of the completed scheme!

Orbit summer social 🌅 We enjoyed a fun summer social at the luxurious Wagtail rooftop bar at our 68 King William Street project. It was great to hang out together as a team, away from the office and hard work we’ve been doing this year. The cherry on top was enjoying the space at one of our prestigious projects in the City. The Wagtail rooftop bar and restaurant was part of the refurbishment of the majestic building in Monument, also featuring an exceptional new city restaurant by The Wolseley Hospitality Group, and a newly equipped PureGym. The two-story extension is now home to the luxury rooftop bar and restaurant, Wagtail, which offers 360 views of the London skyline. We’d like to thank the Wagtail team for a delightful evening, watching a glorious sunset across London.

Project Reveal - 104 Park Street Orbit is excited to reveal the sensitive heritage refurbishment of 104 Park Street. Orbit was the architect of this Cat A scheme at this heritage property in Mayfair. The complete refurbishment included internal reconfiguration to enable a larger lift to be installed to serve all floors and a rear extension to create additional floor space and a roof terrace. Period heritage features were diligently introduced by Orbit and carefully mixed with contemporary features to create a vibrant working environment. New services were integrated seamlessly to enhance the overall quality of the refurbishment. Orbit coordinated these services to ensure they were functional and efficient, while remaining discreetly integrated to maintain the building's aesthetic integrity.
