Offices
Faber Maunsell plays a prominent role in creating office buildings that are purpose-designed for working life in the 21st century.

We provide a comprehensive design engineering service for office buildings, covering a broad range of projects from shell-and-core developments and fit-outs to business parks and refurbishments.
Our core disciplines – civil/structural engineering and building services engineering – are supported by a range of specialisms that includes acoustics, fire engineering and façade design
Our client list is studded with some of the most respected names in the world of commercial property development, as well as architects, construction companies, major end-users and current occupiers. Our experience is extensive, and we have a highly successful track record in developing corporate headquarters and general office buildings, particularly in the financial and media sectors.
Most commercial development takes place in high-value city centre locations, where space is at a premium. We use our design skills to optimise the usable space within the physical parameters of the building, never losing sight of our clients’ objective of achieving the best possible return on investment.
We use the very latest building modelling techniques to calculate the impacts and implications of design options. This enables us to take a holistic approach to the design, bringing together the main elements – structure, façade and building services systems – so that they create functional and aesthetic harmony.
We recognise that owners may need to change the function of a building during its lifetime. Our consultants always bear this in mind and develop solutions that have built-in flexibility.
We are acknowledged as leaders in the field of sustainable building design. We use highly sophisticated simulation software to analyse the interaction of sun, wind and building fabric to determine the optimal thermal performance of the proposed design. This approach enables us to deliver buildings with a low carbon footprint and low energy consumption.
Our project approach is based is based on close working relationships with our clients. The better we understand the precise nature of our client’s objectives, the better we can refine our solutions to meet them.
