Tomorrow highly commended at national awards
MediaCityUK's Tomorrow building has been highly commended at the national BCO (British Council of Offices) 2017 awards in the commercial workplace category.
This is a considerable achievement given the thousands of office developments that are opened annually in the UK.
Designed by Chapman Taylor, the 11-storey building creates a striking visual marker at the entrance to MediaCityUK, currently one of the most advanced IT and media communications locations in the UK. A mixed-use building, Tomorrow includes 5,400m² of flexible office space over six levels for creative digital and media SMEs, with a 112-bed hotel located on the upper four levels.
Designed to be highly energy-efficient, the naturally-ventilated building uses a variety of high-performance façade elements, opening windows, vents and night-time purge facilities to achieve a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ accreditation and flexible working.
