Spec

Brief

Alantra, a global investment banking firm, appointed Aura Consulting to deliver their new London headquarters at 25 Cannon Street.

The project aimed to consolidate two business entities into a single, high-performance workspace.

The fit-out needed to support a high-end client experience, enhance collaboration, and reflect Alantra’s brand identity.

Aura was responsible for Project Management & Cost Consultancy, ensuring seamless delivery on time and within budget.

Challenges

Managing a premium fit-out in a high-profile location.
Working in the heart of the City of London required careful logistical coordination, particularly for deliveries and site access. Aura ensured precise scheduling and stakeholder engagement to mitigate disruptions.

Integrating complex design elements.
The project featured curved glass partitions, bespoke joinery, and high-spec finishes, requiring close collaboration with contractors to ensure quality control and cost efficiency.

Strict programme deadlines.
With a firm completion date, aligning the lease and operational requirements, Aura implemented a tight programme management strategy, closely tracking milestones to prevent delays.

Highlights

Curved glazing & bespoke joinery.
Precision engineering and meticulous project oversight ensured the successful integration of these complex elements.

Advanced MEP & lighting coordination.
The design optimised natural light, complemented by an integrated LED and climate control system for energy efficiency and workspace functionality.

Acoustic & privacy solutions.
Aura oversaw the installation of soundproof meeting rooms and strategic acoustic treatments, balancing openness with confidentiality.

Seamless relocation management.
Alantra’s transition into the new space was executed smoothly, with no operational downtime.
