We were extremely proud to be appointed by Mace to carry out the full design, supply & installation joinery package on LSE’s Centre Buildings Redevelopment which is their largest ever redevelopment involving the construction of connected 13-storey & 6-storey towers at the LSE’s Aldwych campus. The facility includes lecture theatres, study areas, staff offices, a café/learning commons area & a series of landscaped roof terraces.
