The deal marks the final stage of the broadcaster\u2019s move from The Mailbox, where 650 staff are currently based, to its new creative base in the heart of the city\u2019s growing media quarter.<\/p>\n

Developer Stoford and BAM began transforming the derelict Tea Factory into a shell-and-core office scheme in early 2024, with completion due in December 2025. <\/p>\n

Overbury will then take over for a nine-month fit-out running from December 2025 to the end of September 2026.<\/p>\n

The four-storey fit-out includes one TV studio and gallery, eight radio studios, ten edit suites, a radio drama studio, lecture theatre, and a series of apparatus and meeting rooms. It will also cover full M&E works, raised access floors, acoustic finishes, and FF&E installation.<\/p>\n

Designs were led by BBC Workplace with J4 Projects as project manager, MGAC as cost consultant, AWW Architects and IDSR handling architecture and interiors, CMB on MEP design, Arup as structural engineer, and Ion Acoustics overseeing sound performance.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
