CEG completes Crescent redevelopment

A “transformative” office redevelopment in Bristol has reached practical completion, with new office space and a fit-out company appointed to finalise the project.

CEG’s £30 million redevelopment of Crescent at Temple Quay has transformed the building into a modern office hub offering 100,000sq ft of space and a host of premium facilities. 

The development features rooftop terraces, the city’s largest private garden, a secure weatherproof cycle park with repair facilities, as well as a wellbeing and fitness studio with leisure club changing rooms.

The first letting has been secured, with OVO relocating its UK headquarters to over 22,000sq ft of space, including the entire fifth floor and a suite on the fourth floor.

Targeting BREEAM Excellent and net-zero carbon status, the building presents an energy-efficient option for businesses, with Bath-based fit-out specialist Interaction appointed to deliver tailored office spaces ready for occupation.

Paul Richardson, investment manager at CEG, said: “Crescent sits in a prime location on Temple Back. 

“This is a first-class redevelopment and Interaction’s interior design will deliver a contemporary and healthy place to work, supported by amenities including a ribbon business lounge, Temple Grind café, well-being and fitness studio.”

Hannah Eardley, business director at Interaction, added: “We are thrilled to collaborate with CEG on such a transformative project. 

“The design balances sustainability with a deep respect for the building’s heritage, incorporating nods to Bristol’s rich manufacturing history such as the original fabric racks and pottery. 

“By reimagining communal areas with thoughtful, flexible design, we’re creating a space that really works for its occupiers, offering something for everyone. 

“This collaboration is a fantastic opportunity to deliver not just a workplace, but a destination where community and sustainability are at the heart of the experience.”

Carter Jonas and Savills have been appointed to launch the development to market.
