Birmingham’s first SMART Building, Enterprise Wharf, is described by CBRE as currently the city’s most exciting new build.
Designed by Associated Architects, Enterprise Wharf provides ten storeys of contemporary, flexible office space across 120,000 sq ft. Its embedded SMART building infrastructure optimises user experience and wellbeing, reduces emissions and lowers operational costs. The complex and innovative building façade has been designed to provide high thermal efficiency, minimising internal artificial lighting requirements.
The building’s exterior features mid-grey tone acid-etched pre-cast panels, reflecting the city centre’s civic architecture. Contrasting this frame, red anodised perforated and solid decorative panels fill the solid areas. Main glazed sections have black frames with vision and spandrel glass panels, while higher levels and rear elevation includes black cladding and louvres. A silver anodized frame and fins define the glazed entrance and undercroft area facing the street and iCentrum building. The undercroft is lined with red perforated cladding, continuing internally into the arrival space.


Working under instruction from clients Bruntwood SciTech, Wintech have been engaged in the project as façade consultants since RIBA stage 3 including attendance at meetings, tender performance audit, design audit and factory visits.
