I remember as a child being able to the papers being printed through the windows. Looks like they have done a pretty good job.
Good that they ditched the mirror glass.

Would love to have a look inside
Just been to a talk given by these guys
Although I think you need verrry deep pockets.
Seeing “This Brutal House” posting a better photo of the same, the BMW headquarters in Munich.

Soon the grille on BMWs will be about that size

Didn’t look quite like this (no typewriters etc) when I spent some time there but there was a bit of a Bauhaus feel to the central open spaces.

BT seems to have continually built the ugliest building possible in every town they have a presence. It’s a standing joke amongst the staff. “When you get out the train station look for the ugliest building you can see and that will be the office”.

Leased by BT, not built. But yeah, they do occupy some fugly buildings.
I’m pretty sure some skulldugery was going on when they sold the buildings to a company owned by BT group then leased them back to BT then bought the company they owned back again a number of years ago. With the new buildings it seems to be normal lease deal. It will provide lots of employment in Bristol though and they pay isn’t horrendous so hope it’s a success for employees and the company

BT sold off most of their property 20 years ago to partially fund the squillions they spent on 3G mobile licences.
In Bristol they own very few properties now beyond exchanges.
