12 Little Portland Street

12 Little Portland Street is a prominent existing Grade II Listed building located within the Regent Street Conservation Area and owned by The Crown Estate. The Client wanted to re-image and define the building to give it a broader appeal to tenants through the creation of a new “plug and play” workspace concept across the lettable floors.

The brief comprised the repositioning of the main core, new lift and creation of a new reception accessed from Little Portland Street as opposed the previous arrangement of access from Upper Regent Street together with the re-fitting of all floors. The completed building provides an increased commercial floor area of 2,900 ft² over 6 floors and 915 ft² of retail space at first and basement levels. External upgrades saw the cleaning and repair of the building’s historic stone façades, and the addition of new bronze shopfronts at ground level. Additional space was created by relocating the existing office entrance from Regent Street to Little Portland Street, thus increasing the frontage of retail space facing directly onto Regent Street.
