Bowling alleys are great because they are column free, and after removing the suspended ceiling we revealed a double height space. This also revealed 2m deep down-stand beams which we re-clad integrating lighting and air-conditioning. The over riding rhythm of the beams naturally lead us to arrange the desks in ʻbowling lanesʼ with circulation between them. A central park runs through the middle of the space and a series of shelters for meeting rooms, project rooms and director's offices generate a small townscape in the space, where the raised areas on top of the shelters make for pleasant breakout spaces.
