The arrival at building 150 has now been transformed into a dramatic destination at Farnborough Business Park.
Transformation has been achieved through the effective Landscape Design by ASA and a landmark “150” entrance sign, you have arrived at Building 150!
We enjoy working with ASA and I am happy to complete another successful project within the Frasers Property UK portfolio.
ASA Landscape Architects provided the external works design services from inception to planning, tendering and construction; ensuring attention to detail and a client focused approach, which led to a commercial landscape that was delivered on time and budget and one in which has been very well received by prospective occupiers.
We are absolutely thrilled with the new pocket park in front of the 200 Series at Winnersh Triangle business park. We have a great relationship with ASA Landscape Architects which has developed over time and through a number of large commercial projects. They listened and understood our vision and constraints; delivering a scheme that surpassed our expectations.
