Futureproofing a Live Broadcast Newsroom.
This project was part of an overarching scheme to enhance the building’s facilities whilst maintaining ongoing broadcasting for one of the world’s leading news channels. It required moving the entire newsroom elsewhere within the same building, involving out of hours relocations with a complex (if temporary) programme of prewiring and environment preparation.
The longer-term challenge was to update and futureproof the newsroom from a technological perspective and to match this with a layout and furniture that meets 21st century needs. In both cases, the current newsroom was no longer fit for purpose. Throughout the project, there were change requests which we needed to incorporate with minimal impact on deadline and budget.
