ICE Exchange Quay Coworking Offices – Salford
74 was tasked with the design of the ICE Exchange Quay Coworking offices located in Salford, England.
ICE is located on the Exchange Quay development’s central spine, making it easily accessible from the main pedestrian boulevard. The 26,000 square foot, six-storey building offers good sized floor plates and excellent daylight ingress, served by a central circulation core.
As part of the project, 74 designed a newly expanded ground floor space to serve tenants of the whole development, including a reception, large meeting room (ICE Cube), lobby lounge and enlarged bar/social space to allow tenants to work, meet, socialise and relax, as well as a first floor lounge and co-working space directly above the new bar. The remainder of storey one and all of storeys 2-5 were then given a Cat-A fit-out, ready for new tenants looking for a cross between a corporate Grade A environment and a more stripped-back co-working environment.
