Atlantic Quay

Masterplan and design of six buildings in two phases.

Atlantic Quay comprises a group of six office buildings located in Glasgow's city centre waterfront area, the Broomielaw.

They respond to the scale and civic presence of their neighbours while meeting the most stringent needs of today’s modern occupiers, offering large office floorplates in the commercial heart of Glasgow.
