After producing tender drawings on behalf of the client, Meda worked as architect for the chosen contractor post-tender, securing planning and building regulations consent, and developing the design through the construction stage.

The new facility occupies a compact and efficient envelope with featured colour glazing that percolates into training rooms and offices. The internal finishes are sensitive to the brand palette, linking Volvo’s retail environment with building users and trainees.

It includes a large training workshop, conferencing and catering facilities, and an elegant administrative office suite.

Here's just a small selection of images from the project. For more information and a full case study, please drop us an email.
