Tomorrow Building wins Gold Prize at Chinese CREDAWARD ceremony

Chapman Taylor is delighted to report that the Tomorrow building at MediaCityUK in Manchester, UK, has won the 2018 CREDAWARD Gold Prize for the Commercial and Office Project category, in Shanghai, China.

The CREDAWARD ceremony, formerly the Chinese Redesign Awards, celebrates the very best in property design from across the world. This year’s event is the first time that international firms which operate in China have been invited to participate with their international projects. Directors from many large international design firms were in attendance.

Of 658 submissions, only 10 projects won a Gold Prize.

MediaCityUK Tomorrow is a sustainable, low-energy, mixed-use building which provides flexible office space for the digital media, technology and creative industries. Provided with world-class connectivity (awarded Wired ‘Platinum’ rating), the building is flexible and responsive to the changing needs of occupiers, whilst providing a fun working environment. The 112-bed hotel has its own entrance at ground floor.

The scheme, developed by Peel Media Ltd, is sustainable and energy-efficient, achieving BREEAM ‘Excellent’ ratings. Tomorrow won ‘Best Workplace’ at the 2017 Northern Regional BCO awards and was ‘Highly Commended’ in the National BCO awards.

Congratulations to everyone involved in the Tomorrow project at Peel Media Ltd, our Manchester studio, as well as to those from the Shanghai studio presenting it at the awards.
