Foster + Partners unveils curving office building at Battersea Power Station

Architecture studio Foster + Partners has revealed 50 Electric Boulevard, an 18,580-square-metre workplace within London's Battersea Power Station development.
Located along Battersea Power Station's pedestrianised high street, Foster + Partners designed the building and its interiors to function as flexible and adaptbale office space.
"50 Electric Boulevard's soft undulating form creates a varying floorplate, which provides maximum flexibility for its tenants and creates a building that can evolve to meet the future requirements of the workplace," said head of studio Grant Brooker.

Each level includes a cantilevered outdoor terrace and openable windows for workers to access the outside. "We wanted 50 Electric Boulevard to be flooded with light and, of course, to benefit from natural ventilation," Brooker explained. "We believe its floor-to-ceiling windows and cantilevered balconies create a permeable, flexible and healthy working environment."
The building's glazed facade is broken up by exposed concrete floorplates
Occupants can also enjoy a communal rooftop garden overlooking the London skyline and River Thames.
Other facilities at 50 Electric Boulevard include a double-height pavilion with large skylights and trees called the Light Box. It can host up to 240 people and is intended to encourage employees away from their desks.
