At the end of the 19th century, New York kicked off the rise of skyscrapers, and the skyscrapers began to emerge, and architects pondered how to build taller buildings on limited land to accommodate the growing number of businesses and tens of thousands of white-collar workers.
Nowadays, the role of architecture and people has changed under the wave of the people-oriented era. As the outliner of the city's skyline, the skyscraper has derived a new definition: it is no longer a huge landmark lacking temperature, but a service-oriented architectural space with safety, health, high quality and humanity as its genes.
In ABB's "Architecture is Frozen Music", 22 Bishopsgate, United Kingdom· London's second "high ground", is standing on top of the city with an open and vibrant attitude, meeting the diverse needs of all kinds of commercial office people for shared spaces. What's it like to work here?
PLP Design has positioned 22 Bishopsgate as a vertical village. The 100,000-square-foot floor area hosts a variety of user amenities: a bicycle park, an educational space, an innovation center, a two-story gymnasium, a giant dining center, a wellness area, a recreation area, an event and cultural area, and more to make residents feel happy when they leave the building.
In addition to having the necessary scenarios to meet people's lifestyles, it is also important to have smart, convenient, green and low-carbon buildings. Here, users can quickly enter the building through face recognition, scanning QR codes, etc., and use the mobile app to easily manage and book rooms and control the indoor environment.
ABB i-bus® KNX intelligent building control system plays an important role in the energy saving, carbon reduction and sustainable development of buildings. By connecting lighting, fans, shading controls, and other electronic devices, the equipment in the building can be adjusted in real time, which not only improves the safety and comfort of smart living scenarios, but also further reduces energy demand by about 10%.
In addition, with the help of renewable energy, ABB switchgear and smart power distribution systems, the building can provide users with a smart and green electricity experience, and protect people's electricity safety around the clock. Notably, the building has met the London Energy Transition Initiative's net-zero emission standards, has been certified WiredScore Platinum, has been awarded an Active Score Platinum rating, and has achieved BREEAM Excellence and WELL certification.
From a service perspective, 22 Bishopsgate fully takes into account the fragmented leisure time of the crowd, and turns the traditional high-rise building into a safe, smart and sustainable urban public space model, providing users with a more humane experience. It is not only an office space, but also a business benchmark and a microcosm of life that people will not want to return to.
