The Culzean
Renfield Street, Glasgow
Designed in the 1920s by James Miller, 28 – 36 Renfield Street started life as a furniture warehouse. It is now a multi-tenanted office building.
Despite the building’s architectural merit, owner Dalmagarry Properties struggled to find occupiers ‒ due to the location and the quality of the space. Working with property consultants Martin Speirs and Phil Reid, c2: revamped the common parts and the fourth floor office suites to create a more attractive offering.
The light touch office refit leaves the concrete columns and ceilings exposed, with glazed partitions creating a sense of light and openness. Contemporary tea points, comfortable meeting rooms, secure cycle storage, and new toilets and showers respond to occupiers’ desire for high-quality amenity spaces.
Embracing the building’s gritty but vibrant location, the new entrance design has a deliberately moody aesthetic with a dash of roaring 1920s’ glamour. This is reinforced by P4P Creative’s striking new logo for the building ‒ now rebranded as The Culzean.
