We wish all our clients, fellow consultants, contractors, staff, in fact everyone, a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

One of our major projects in St John's Wood reached a milestone this month. The existing building has been demolished behind a retained facade.

The scheme involves the excavation of a basement and reconstructing the building to comprise 7 luxury apartments plus two contemporary houses at the rear of the site.

A team from Box recently undertook the iconic bike ride from London to Brighton.

We took a leisurely (and rather hilly) route on mainly B-roads, stopping off for sustenance at the halfway point before completing the 57 mile journey at a beach-front cafe.

Well done to all those involved in the ride and a big thank you to the support team.

Box acted as Project Managers and Quantity Surveyors on the refurbishment of 30 serviced apartments in South Kensington.

Lexham Gardens by Cheval Maison has now joined Cheval Collection as the first Maison property in the Cheval Collection portfolio, a luxury serviced apartment operator with properties in central London and Edinburgh https://www.chevalcollection.com/cheval-maison/lex...

Box is proud to announce the opening of the Aire Ancient Baths in London https://beaire.com/en/london/landing/?utm_source=g...

The project was completed in June and follows a major refurbishment of an 18th Century building just off the Strand. The most challenging aspect was the incorporation of the extensive mechanical, electrical and pool plant into restricted space.

The wrap on one of our Knightsbridge schemes give a clean look to the scaffold.

The project is progressing well with a temporary roof in place, the existing roof removed and new steels being installed to provide a new mansard roof level.

Our Spanish office is undertaking all Valeo Management's current Iberian student accommodation projects (Barcelona, Granada, Sevilla, Porto I and Porto II).

Along with our client and partner teams, BOX accomplished very complex pre-construction stage tasks such as the management of legal / technical due diligences, feasibility studies, fund approvals, design development management from inception to construction, value engineering and high level negotiations in councils planning departments. In addition we have undertaken the successful management and negotiations of different tenders and completely bespoke construction contracts.

We wish all the luck to the team with these five projects and we are looking forward to the grand openings this September 2021 of “LIV Student Polo Universitario, Porto” and “LIV Student Granada”.
