The view from the top of the career ladder.

It’s not just about the views, although if you were a tourist you could return home happy in the thought that you’d captured a fair chunk of iconic London landmarks. No, Brettenham House has something often missing in more contemporary developments. Character. And in bringing the entrances, receptions and common parts into 2008, we have still retained the grandeur that makes the building unique in this part of Midtown.

They may want you in New York but even if they are going to double your salary, have a good look around Brettenham House before making your decision.

WHEN THIS IS YOUR LONDON OFFICE, THAT NEW YORK POSTING COULD BE SEEN AS A SIDEWAYS MOVE.

Should you decide to greet visitors in the main reception, you can be assured that they won’t mind hanging around. This split-level area (with disabled access) has been designed to a high standard, the palette of colours and materials create a light and inviting environment.

RECEPTION. WHERE YOUR CLIENTS WON’T MIND WAITING.

You don’t have to be at your desk to think. And because the design ethos of the reception has also been extended into the toilets, you could find you’re as productive here as back at your desktop. Timber and metallic strips set into painted panels make these loos as unusual as the rest of Brettenham House.

SOME DEVELOPMENTS TREAT THE LOOS AS AN AFTERTHOUGHT. WE SEE THEM AS A GREAT PLACE TO THINK.

YOU SPEND TWO THIRDS OF YOUR LIFE AT WORK, BUT IT WON’T SEEM LIKE IT HERE.

Do something different at lunchtime. Go for a walk along the Embankment. Look up at a large expanse of sky (when did you last do that in London?) Or just look at life on the Thames; it’s a two minute walk from Brettenham House.

In the evening arrange to meet your partner or friends in Covent Garden; it’s a three minute walk from Brettenham House and opera, theatres, restaurants and bars are all there to be enjoyed.

It is said that people in the UK work the longest hours in Europe, all the more reason for your place of work to be somewhere that you can also enjoy when you are not at your desk.
