Project Overview

Contemporary, bespoke self-storage facility at Eastern Avenue, Lichfield for personal and business use incorporating sustainable technology for personal and business use incorporating sustainable technology systems. With secure compound and parking with 24-hour access for a range of vehicle types. Full development of a former industrial site and in keeping with a regeneration project in the surrounding area.

Context

This project reinvented the old factory site, delivering a modern storage facility that was a great addition to the established industrial area more commonly known as Eastern Employment Area.

Making greater use of the available space, the new premises gives future occupants an opportunity to add additional elements and customise the space to meet their own unique requirements.

Secure, stylish and built for purpose, the storage facility and office spaces have been constructed in a way that adds value to the surrounding area, with easy 24-hour access for vehicles entering or leaving the compound.

Design

While committed to providing the applicant with a secure new development that could be used as a storage facility, it was crucial that the contemporary bespoke design solution was in harmony with the wider estate development works and the constraints of a heavily sloping site.

The facility was created with space for associated ancillary offices and the potential for additional mezzanine floor levels alongside appropriate external areas for loading and storage.
