New city centre department store.

The construction of the largest department store in Wales. The store was opened in September 2009 as the 'anchor store' for St David's 2. At 280,000 sq ft, the shop occupies four storeys and is dominated by a triple glazed 'prow' - a key landmark in Cardiff city centre.

Lateral Technologies & Solutions Ltd were employed by John Lewis Partnership to design the MEP services, along with an ETM role providing a soft landing and client support after handover.
