Timber Square reaches practical completion

We’re pleased to mark the practical completion of Timber Square, a pioneering mixed‑use redevelopment in the heart of Southwark.

The scheme delivers 365,000 sq ft of high‑quality workspace, retail, and leisure uses across two distinct buildings that showcase innovation, sustainability, and large‑scale adaptive reuse.

Project highlights include:

  • The Ink Building – a 14‑storey new build and Europe’s tallest hybrid CLT and steel structure, setting a new benchmark for low‑carbon construction.
  • The Print Building – a major cut‑and‑carve transformation that retains 80% of the original 1950s concrete frame, demonstrating the value and potential of circular design.
  • A coordinated approach to modern building services, sustainable materials, and future‑ready performance across both structures.

Since 2018, we have provided full cost management services through to completion, supported by our team: Tom Atkinson, Jean Gregory, and James Haley. We’re proud to have supported a scheme that advances sustainable design while delivering flexible, high‑quality workspace.

Congratulations to all project teams involved: Landsec, Mace, Opera, The Erith Group, Bennetts Associates, Heyne Tillett Steel, Hoare Lea.
