#103 Paradise - Visiting the Best-in-class Mass Timber Sustainable Workspace in London

This week on the People Property Place Podcast 🎙️we’re taking a slightly different approach…

 We’re heading to Paradise – a brand new development by Bywater Properties & Sumitomo Forestry in SE11, Lambeth.

This best-in-class mass timber office project spans 63,000 sq. ft. of sustainable workspace, is designed to lock away the equivalent of 60 years of tenant operating emissions, and is set to be completed in Q1 2025.

Since joining forces with Sumitomo Forestry, Bywater Properties has been on an incredible growth journey, acquiring several office redevelopment projects across the UK and launching a brand new Living strategy.

At Rockbourne, we’ve had the privilege of calling Bywater our clients, partners, and friends and have loved playing a small part in helping build their exceptional team.

A few weeks ago, I packed up the podcast gear and sat down on-site at Paradise with Theodore Michell, Co-Founder and COO, and Pavlos Clifton, Head of Development.

We delved into some of the key questions surrounding timber construction, sustainable building practices, embodied carbon, and how these trends are shaping investment, development, and leasing in the real estate sector.

The full conversation drops on Thursday this week, on Youtube, Spotify & Apple. I hope you find our conversation insightful and inspiring! Do let me know your feedback by shooting me a DM.
