Tall buildings

As urban densification drives the need for a new generation of tall buildings, we're helping clients procure, develop and refurbish these assets.

Driving the successful delivery of tall buildings for sustainable urban growth 

Urbanisation, rising land values, the changing workplace, housing needs and sustainability pressures are converging trends that are driving the construction of tall buildings globally. Tall buildings are often a city’s most valuable commercial assets, especially in the most space constrained locations. 

Buildings over 30 floors take longer to plan, construct, manage and service. Tall building projects carry inherent risks, because of their scale and uniqueness. Our experience shows that financial and other potential premiums can be minimised and even eliminated through the right, early focus. 

Technical innovations, from digital twins and modern methods of construction to alternative materials and products, can transform the way tall buildings are designed, constructed and operated. We have the in-house tools – in people and systems – to push these boundaries.

Specialist expertise in tall buildings 

We help our clients build taller, faster, more cost-effectively and sustainably. Our unrivalled expertise and collaborative approach have helped ensure the successful delivery of tall, large and complex projects across the world, including global icons.   

Our expertise in project management and cost and commercial management and programme advisory services drives ultimate success. That is underpinned by specialists in our cost teams in areas including façades, mechanical, electrical and plumbing, and low-carbon design. 

Our track record spans the full breadth of asset types, including office, residential, hotel, laboratory-enabled buildings and major mixed-use schemes. 

Whatever the asset type, our skills marry the technical and the commercial. We know how to reconcile aesthetics, performance and costs in every element of a tall building.​ Data benchmarking for tall buildings is among our renowned areas of expertise.
