Near Alexandra Palace with its rolling parkland and a short bus ride from Tottenham Hotspur’s White Hart Lane football stadium is Greenside House in Wood Green, London.

This formerly cold, steely 1980s edifice at odds with the hectares of parkland just round the corner, got a new lease on life in 2021 with an £8 million refurbishment and reimagining by renowned architects Hawkins/Brown.

‘Inspired by the surrounding area, we proposed an indoor green route – starting from the entrance, running through a full-height atrium and ending in a roof terrace – to visually reconnect the building to Alexandra Park. The route also establishes pockets of green space that work as backdrops for activities, and which encourage people to interact and socialise.’- Hawkins/Brown. 

Enhancing the characteristics of the Greenside House building with nods to 1980s post-modernism, they engaged with the traditionally arty local community in Wood Green to commission site-specific works. There was also a particular focus on reducing carbon emissions within the building and promoting wellbeing, both of which Clockwise places particular importance on.

Today, Clockwise Wood Green is a bright, open shared office space with incredible views of Alexandra Park and the surrounding areas in this iconic part of North London. Celebrating the stunning natural parkland around the corner, Greenside House is an attractive proposition both aesthetically and practically thanks to the considered design features.

But the positives of the flexible office spaces on offer aren’t just confined to within the walls of Greenside House.
