Some of the most modern buildings in Leeds city centre are really quite attractive, I think. This is the new office for the large accountancy and financial services company, KPMG, opened in late 2015. It is designed to be environmentally friendly with a green roof. Its expanse of glass has an interesting turquoise tint towards the base of each of the four levels. The award-winning Sovereign Square development is part of the regeneration of this formerly industrial part of the city down by the docks.
I think you're right Jenny, I like this design and the new entrance to the railway station in yesterday's post.
ReplyDeleteI do believe there are signs of British architecture rediscovering its mojo in the 21st century.
ReplyDeleteInteresting architecture. That company has a presence here as well.
ReplyDeleteKPMG have I think a nice building.
ReplyDeleteIt is good to see these old areas being revitalized but it also means that all those jobs are gone which is sad.
