Conwest Vantage Way

This dock-load warehouse building in the Tilbury industrial park was originally designed on spec to accommodate between one and six users, however, during construction was leased-out to a single user for a last-mile distribution facility. Modifications were made ‘on the fly’ to accommodate the new user’s needs and achieve final occupancy for the tenant improvement concurrent with that of the shell building. Design features focused on breaking up the long front façade without inducing excessive costs, utilizing limited amounts of curtain wall glazing and perforated metal panels. Environmental considerations for the existing mature trees at the front of the site and adjacent watercourse also had to be taken into account.
