在伦敦帕特诺斯特广场的繁华一角,一座融合传统与现代设计的新地标已经崭露头角。
Convene Sancroft St Paul’s is the single largest above-ground meeting room in the City of London, spanning 45,000-square-foot of meeting & event spaces. As with Convene’s first award-winning UK location at 22 Bishopsgate, Woods Bagot led the design for this high-design space across two floors. The space boasts a 900-person grand hall, 7 distinct meeting spaces, gallery space, and hospitality amenities bespoke to the Convene brand.
The building itself sits on Paternoster Square directly adjacent to St Paul’s Cathedral, surrounded by both historic and modern buildings. Drawing from this rich local tradition of craftsmanship the design takes inspiration from the Elizabethan era through bold colours, floral wallpapers, and tactile fabrics nodding to a palette of the past.
The Sancroft St. Paul’s location integrates a concept-driven hospitality product with architectural, vernacular, and experiential elements, making it versatile for any occasion. It balances grand architectural scale with an intimate, human touch through a play on scales, where subtle and sculptural elements create harmony. A key aspect of the design is its adaptability to various scales and functions. Whether hosting large conferences or intimate meetings, the space can be tailored to diverse needs, ensuring every event is executed with precision and flair.
The design of Convene Sancroft underscores the commitment of both Convene and Woods Bagot to creating spaces that inspire, connect, and elevate the human experience.
