Drawing on a rich variety of textures, shapes, and finishes, Huckletree Kensington by Material Works offers both a vivid and inviting workplace, with sustainable design ingrained throughout.

At ground level, users can find both traditional meeting rooms and touch-down work settings, as well as a barista station. The upper-floor is modelled around a member's bar, with banquette seating and sliding partitions arranged to create varying levels of intimacy, from a corner snug to the open roof terrace.

Materials have been thoughtfully chosen for their minimal embodied energy and commitment to cradle-to-cradle life cycles. Recycled plastics are used throughout to create work-tops and joinery alongside natural wood, wool and timbers in dyed finishes. New flooring and fabrics are 100% closed-loop recyclable and low carbon graphene-based paints were used across the space. As a result, the project achieved the maximum gold rating SKA sustainability certification.
