The new BBC Cymru Wales Headquarters, with 25,600 sqm of land and £120 million of investment, contains a wide variety of studio, administration and support spaces. This project will be completed in 2019.
The building is designed to be open and welcoming - visitors can access the ground floor and look up through a full-height atrium into the working spaces above, as well as into a new café facing the square. The design also establishes a sense of openness and transparency between different departments to create new opportunities for collaboration and interaction. The heart of the headquarters is a 4,000-square-metre ‘hub’, which extends across three linked levels and incorporates studios, offices and production facilities. The scheme includes a sheltered garden on the roof of the hub, which is connected to a restaurant and provides a unique venue for filming, as well as a valuable social amenity for staff.
The project targets at ‘outstanding’ environmental accreditation with strategies such as chilled beams, locally sourced and recycled materials and an efficient envelope. This project, with total investment of £120 million（$158 million）, will be completed in the autumn of 2019. Besides, it is envisaged that an estimated 50,000 people will visit the new building every year.
