Built in the 1960s as an office space, Centre Point is an instantly recognizable London landmark. Its new concept transforms the iconic 34-story tower into 82 one- to five-bedroom high-end residential apartments with panoramic views that include Buckingham Palace, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and Tower Bridge.
In addition to changing the overall use of the Grade-II listed Centre Point complex, the transformation was completed to ensure reduced energy consumption with a high-performance shell and inner core, replacing all glass panels with the Saflex Acoustic PVB Interlayer.
By using Saflex Acoustic for the Centre Point tower, the design team was able to provide tenants in the above flats and businesses with a quiet, serene environment.
