  Show Project Description

  The partnership between Landid and Brockton has achieved WELL Building Standard™ certification for The Porter Building, making the 120,000 sq ft development in Slough one of the UK’s healthiest office buildings.

  The WELL Building Standard is an international performance-based assessment methodology grounded in medical research that is exclusively focused on human health and wellbeing in the built environment.

  The standard has become a key marker of new office design in the US, and an increasing number of major UK office developments currently under construction are registered for the rating. However, The Porter Building is the first in the country to achieve WELL Core and Shell certification, attaining a rating of Gold, the second highest possible.

  Designed by tp bennett, The Porter Building launched in November 2017 has been developed to maximise the wellbeing of its occupiers, with abundant natural light, fresh air, specially filtrated drinking water, healthy eating options, indoor planting, noise reduction measures and a layout aimed at encouraging movement around the workplace.

  According to a range of studies, a focus on enhancing workplace wellbeing has significant positive impacts on productivity. For example, improved air quality can enhance cognition by as much as 61%; drinking ample fresh water can increase productivity by 14% and an office design that enhances movement can boost productivity by 12%.

  Located directly opposite Slough Station, The Porter Building offers connections into London Paddington in just 13 minutes – with occupiers set to benefit from even faster connections when the Elizabeth Line arrives in 2019, with journey times into Tottenham Court Road reduced to just 34 minutes.
