彭博社的新欧洲总部屹立于伦敦市中心,靠近英格兰银行、圣保罗大教堂和圣史蒂芬大教堂。从建筑形式、体量和材料来看,该新建筑具有独特的地理位置和建造时间——作为这座城市的自然延伸,该建筑将融入并改善周围公共场所的条件。建筑拥有英国BREEAM项目建筑认证,是可持续发展的真正典范——具有所有大型办公建筑中最高的设计阶段评分。总部由两栋建筑组成,占地3.2英亩,横跨整个城市街区,两栋建筑由桥梁连接在一起,桥上建有拱廊。漫步其上,惠特灵大道(Watling Street)尽收眼底,人们可以感受古罗马时代的遗风。彭博拱廊现在是人们在城市中穿梭的关键路线,餐厅和咖啡馆位于地面,其后是一个有顶盖的柱廊,柱廊下为一面起伏状的外墙。拱廊的两端和建筑入口前建有三个公共广场,为伦敦“Square Mile”中心区提供了全新的市民活动空间。

Bloomberg’s new European headquarters is respectful of its location in the heart of the City of London,close to the Bank of England,St.Paul’s Cathedral and the church of St.Stephen’s Walbrook.In its form,massing and materials,the new building is uniquely of their place and time–a natural extension of the City that will endure and improve the surrounding public realm.It is a true exemplar of sustainable development,with a BREEAM Outstanding rating–the highest design-stage score ever achieved by any major office development.
