Focus Week 1 - Chiswick Park

“All our staff really enjoy working at Chiswick Park. As a result, the company finds it much easier to retain people. Some people travel from as far away a Kent. They seem not to mind the journey because it is such a great place to work.”

Jason Brown, Intelsat








This is something I really wanted to look at as it was local to me and was being developed as I grew up, I was engaged into the development before it was even completed. It boasts a whopping 33 acre site Chiswick, London. Its original idea to redevelopment came with a high interest of the local community, nethermind the countless number of investors involved. As there was a lack of quality employment oppotunities within the area, the designers decided to take on the challenge for a office park that would hail its wonderful views that every offices should look like.

The Development consist of 12 buildings, a small river, and shops. It has created an atmostphere for workplace that embraces a philosophy of "Enjoy Work" - putting people, rather than buildings, at the heart of Chiswick Park.
