Situated between the prestigious South Kensington and Chelsea, Michelin House was formerly commissioned by the Michelin Tyre Company back in 1909 as their original permanent British headquarters. Now renovated into flexible working offices, the property still houses many of its former owners features.
The offices overlook the central atrium, and the building holds a number of amenities, including; meeting rooms, hot desks, a business lounge, showers and a beautiful terrace. Michelin House has numerous transport links, being just a short walk from South Kensington underground station, as well as the many bus routes that pass through the area.
The UK’s capital city is a well-established hub for flexible office space, home to a wide selection of spaces from household industry names such as WeWork and The Office Group to unique independent providers. This vast city can be split into five areas; Central, North, South, East and West, each with a slightly different offering for businesses. As the core of the city, Central London is naturally, a popular area for businesses and in turn a hub for flexible office space. Shoreditch is known for its vibrant tech scene, and in the prestigious West End area of Mayfair you’ll find some of the largest and well-established companies in the world.
In the East of London, Hackney has become popular with creative industries, and sitting in stark contrast is Canary Wharf which is the financial hub of the city. South London is an up-and-coming area for businesses looking for more affordable rent prices and in areas like Brixton, more flexible workspace is opening up as demand grows. In the West of the city, this leafy area is a popular residential area, but its fast links into central London still make it a desirable location for businesses. A trend we are beginning to see is more flexible workspaces opening up in residential markets to cater for those preferring to work closer to home.
London offers many benefits for businesses, despite the often high rent prices for offices, the city is well-connected through its underground system and has a bustling social scene and green spaces to enjoy. The flexible office market continues to grow and as more providers come onto the scene, there is plenty of choice to suit your business’ needs.
