This mixed-use development located north of Oxford Street in central London sits across two urban blocks and has created 75,000 sq ft of new futureproofed office and retail space, together with significant improvements to the public realm.

The lower two floors feature flexible retail space to help activate the street, and user-oriented work accommodation is provided above. Berners and Wells has been designed to respond to the historic character of the local area with contemporary flair added through materiality and the articulation of the elevations. The lower portion is grounded by a series of seven two-storey arches clad in Portland stone with a teal glazed-brick detail, creating a grand entrance to the offices and retail units.

MB-77HS

The MB-77HS lift-and-slide door system offers a seamless transition to your balcony, terrace, or garden. Exceptional user comfort is ensured by features such as a barrier-free (zero) threshold and a slim central mullion.

With a wide selection of configuration options, MB-77HS allows for creative, tailor-made designs. Whether prioritising aesthetics or functionality, this system gives you the freedom to realise your vision.

In a lift-and-slide system, the door leaf first rises slightly above the track when the handle is turned, reducing friction and enabling effortless movement along the guides. The result is exceptionally smooth operation.
