Title: Slough Estates House, Bath Road, Slough. 1980 [Go to resource]
Description: Slough Estates House was built on the Slough Trading Estate facing the Bath Road. This building is typical in plan shape to many modern offices now being built, with its square-shaped layout providing a maximum open floor plan without internal corridors. Open plan offices were regarded as being more democratic, as everyone could work in the same open area regardless of rank or seniority within the company. The amount of useable floor space was increased by removing the requirement for dividing partitions and corridors. This building appears to be in reinforced concrete with its large stepped cantilevered floor slabs creating shading over the floor beneath.
