A GLASGOW building that has been empty for five years is to receive a £35million investment to transform it into offices.
50 Bothwell Street in the city centre is to be redeveloped into a stylish new office space, with a café and business hub at street level.
Proposed designs for the space also feature a light-filled atrium, to allow the offices to be lit naturally and for future employees to enjoy the city skyline.
The design is a collaboration between Mosaic Architecture + Design and the international design studio 10 Design, and aims to provide energy efficient, contemporary accomodation ready for occupation in late 2022.
Mosaic's director Stephen Mallon said: “It is a pleasure to be entrusted with the refurbishment of this important listed building. The project represents a significant investment in both the building and part of the city, which is well deserved.
“The design of the roofscape within the volume of the existing roof should be transformative in terms of the quality of space provided. Allied to the new atrium, this will provide lots of natural light and a vastly improved office floorplate, a true example of sustainable development.
“It has also been good to collaborate with 10 Design and push for a design-led approach across the whole team.”
