A multidisciplinary team, including McGregor Coxall, Haworth Tompkins, Studio Egret West, dRMM, Buro Happold, and Metropolitan Workshop, is working on plans to transform the former GSK headquarters in Brentford into a mixed-use neighbourhood

A high-profile team of architects, landscape designers, and consultants has been appointed to progress a masterplan for the redevelopment of the former GSK headquarters at 980 Great West Road, Brentford.

Led by client, Hadley Property Group, the project team includes landscape architects McGregor Coxall, whose work will focus on climate-resilient public spaces, and plot architects Haworth Tompkins, Studio Egret West, dRMM, and Metropolitan Workshop. Buro Happold and other consultants are contributing to the scheme’s engineering and planning strategies.

This follows Hadley’s recent completion of the purchase of the 13-acre site, which GSK vacated earlier this year to relocate to central London. The pharmaceutical company had marketed the site after over 20 years of occupation.
