One Bankmore, Belfast
One Bankmore is a landmark office development, on a key corner site in the heart of Belfast. Primarily designed as the new Global Headquarters for highly successful local IT firm Kainos, the building also sees them take on a Landlord role, with circa 55,000 sq ft on the building available for letting.
Overlooking Bankmore, the 13 storey development will provide a new standard in office development for Belfast, putting sustainability & people at the very core of the design. Upon completion, One Bankmore will be Northern Irelands first BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ rated office development, and is also set to achieve NABERS 5* and Wired Score ‘Platinum’ accreditations, setting a benchmark for future development in the city. The building will provide users with a wonderful array of facilities, including social areas, a gym and multiple landscaped external terraces, boasting wonderful views over Belfast and the surrounding hills.
The design of the building is strikingly modern, but at the same time sensitively pays homage to the historical character of the site, reinterpreting the classical proportionality & rhythm of former Victorian buildings long lost. Highest quality materials, combined with specific and careful detailing provide a confident and appropriately civic presence to this key corner site in the city, set just a few minutes walk form both City Hall to the North and the newly completed Grand Central Station to West.
