ISG Jackson builds office development in
Guildford
ISG Jackson has commenced work on a GBP6 million design and build project with Standard Life Investments to construct a four-storey commercial office building in Guildford, Surrey.
With significant demand for modern, high specification office accommodation, the new development will provide 30,500 sq ft of Grade A space, and is set to prove an attractive location for both local and national businesses wishing to establish a high profile presence within the town Sympathetically designed to reduce its impact on the local built environment, the new office building has a stepped back profile at either end and a range of finishes to the facade, including brickwork, stone cladding, coloured render panels and extensive curtain walling

Jackson's Completes Duxford War Museum Project
Jackson Building Services has completed a £1.3 million, nine-month project to transform the old Armoury building at the Imperial War Museum Duxford.
The concrete-frame structure features an impressive corporate reception area and three-storeys of open plan office accommodation, with a part steel-frame fourth storey set back from the facade, and a basement car park with bicycle storage area.
The building has been designed to achieve a 'very good' BREEAM environmental rating and utilises an efficient ground source heat pump, which exploits renewable energy stored in the ground to supplement a traditional boiler system.
The project is scheduled for completion in October 2008.
Peter Woodnott, director of ISG Jackson's Commercial division, commented: "Guildford has a buoyant local economy and with high quality commercial office space at a premium, we confidently expect this high profile development to generate much interest".
"The building has been carefully designed to complement the local built environment, whilst its impressive green credentials help to minimise the overall impact of the development.".
