Chancery House
Elevating The Work Environment: With its striking 9 floors, Chancery House is an architectural
marvel redefining modern workspaces with a clear-cut focus on well-being in all its forms.
History dances with sustainability and modern elegance in
the new Chancery House workspace for The Office Group
in the heart of London's lively Midtown. The meticulously
revitalized nine-story heritage building stands tall as a timeless testament to the city's enduring charm. Perched elegantly
atop the labyrinthine London Silver Vaults, an underground
treasure trove of the city's rich history, this architectural gem
exudes an enchanting fusion of heritage and contemporary
design. It's a place where the subtle whispers of time harmonize with the vibrant energy of today, creating a unique atmosphere. Step inside to discover a palette of colors and
materials that reflect the city's vibrant tapestry, while the
essence of the building evokes a sense of serenity, echoing the
ever-evolving rhythm of modern life.
Transcending the conventional concept of an office space,
Chancery House stands as The Office Group's most ambitious venture to date - a sprawling 16.000 sqm residence that
champions sustainability and boasts a 'BREEAM Excellent'
certification, placing flexibility and well-being at the forefront
of its design.

Working on their ninth project with The Office Group,
dMFK Architects have refurbished, reconfigured, and
extended the original building, collaborating with Norm
Architects to deliver the interior architecture - together
demonstrating the possibility and necessity of a comprehensive and aesthetically pleasing approach to the
workplace. Rising nine stories high, this architectural site
now stands as a testament to the seamless integration of
the old and the new, effortlessly fusing heritage with
contemporary design.
Central to the collective spirit is a shared desire to care for
the user, weaving intricate designs that not only engage the
senses but also cultivate a serene and inviting ambiance. Our
conviction lies in the belief that architects and designers bear
a fundamental responsibility: to empower users to thrive - to
sculpt a world that revolves around humanity. This entails a
profound understanding of the design choices that resonate
most profoundly with the holistic well-being of individuals
and extend their positive influence on the broader community and environment. It's not just about creating spaces; it's
about crafting environments that resonate with the very
essence of what it means to live well, both for the individual
and the interconnected world they inhabit.
