The sensitive refurbishment of the ground and basement floors of 1 Essex Court, a grade 1 listed building located at the heart of Middle Temple, provides space for the Clerks, Administration staff and conferencing facilities for One Essex Court, a leading set of commercial barristers’ chambers.
The building has undergone many changes to its layout over time and Horsley Huber Architects worked closely with the Conservation Officer and English Heritage on the design of the scheme, which comprises the careful removal of several partitions to create a large open plan reception and waiting room and a full refurbishment and reordering of the administration and clerks’ rooms as well as a full refurbishment of the conference rooms and all ancillary spaces.
