Old Swiss is the reimagination of the Swiss Laundry warehouses and tannery into 50,000 square feet of superbly designed, state-of-the-art, sophisticated tech and office space in CB1. A landmark in Cambridge South for over a century, Old Swiss has been lovingly revived by a local team of designers, fusing the classic red brickwork with the best contemporary materials. The upgrade included the addition of mezzanine floors to increase the overall floor area of the buildings and provide characterful light-filled office accommodation within the existing use class. Consideration was also given to enhancing the thermal envelope and replacing roofs and glazing, adding significant natural light and value to the spaces. The spaces are complete to a CAT A open plan fit out, ready for an occupier to personalise and enjoy.
The campus features outdoor seating and offers pedestrian access across the site and vehicular access to the on-site car park. Building A houses a café amenity for the site, confirmed to be Stir (coming soon), characterised by its front elevation with a large zinc-covered sawtooth roofline. The surrounding area boasts cafés, restaurants, and sports and entertainment venues.
The development is located on one of Cambridge's main arterial roads, Cherry Hinton Road, offering excellent accessibility to the site from the surrounding area. Nearby Cambridge Railway Station is located just a 15-minute walk away, offering frequent services into London and other nearby cities.
