PTE acquired the site beside the Regent’s Canal in 1994, and has completed the restoration and conversion of this listed Victorian terrazzo factory for its own headquarters.

The building has been creatively adapted with the insertion of mezzanine levels which hang from the existing trusses. At the lower ground floor, impressive pyramidal foundations have been excavated to double up the floorspace. A modern extension and frameless glass doors have been added.

An award-winning garden and landscaped courtyard were introduced beside the canal.

The building now houses 20,000 sq.ft. of offices, conference rooms, and residential accommodation.

PTE has recently re-shaped the studio building to reflect contemporary flexible and collaborative working practices through a comprehensive renovation, including upgrades to infrastructure and access.

the nicest meeting rooms in Islington, with a view to die for”
