The Garden

This 10th-floor terrace is a wonderfully large open space with spectacular views of London. The space is decked out with terrace furniture hand-picked by the building manager, giving it a beautiful home-from-home feel. Expect picnic tables, large corner sofas, and dome-like booths with lots of soft furnishings, making it a real haven for occupiers to enjoy all year round, but especially in the summer months. The team partnered with local charity Hammersmith Community Gardens to keep the terrace colourful and pruned to perfection, with stunning flowers and fresh herb plants. They also commissioned the charity Bees & Refugees to build a 245-shaped insect hotel.
