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.
