Architect to create construction firm’s new headquarters

Matthew Montague Architects has been appointed to create a construction company’s new headquarters.

The firm is to lead on the redevelopment of Alpha House, the head office of Alpha Construction, at Hilton.

Alpha plans to create a modern office development on the site, with the intention of renting out its existing building once it has relocated.

The aim is to transform the site into a sustainable, state-of-the-art headquarters, which reflect the firm’s commitment to innovation, quality and growth.

The redevelopment of Alpha House will involve the demolition of an existing single-storey office and garage, making way for a two-storey office building.

Designed with sustainability and functionality at its core, the new headquarters will feature a raised ground floor to address flood risks and will be strategically positioned at the rear of the plot to optimise the site layout and ensure ease of maintenance.

Daniel Evans, director at Matthew Montague Architects, said: “We are thrilled to work with Alpha Construction on this transformative redevelopment of Alpha House.

“This project represents an exciting opportunity to design a headquarters that not only meets the operational needs of the business but also showcases their forward-thinking approach and commitment to sustainability.

“We look forward to delivering a workspace that Alpha Construction can be proud of for years to come.”

Planning for the project is already underway, with positive preliminary discussions held with South Derbyshire District Council.

Alpha Construction aims to submit the planning application as soon as possible, with the goal of moving back into the redeveloped Alpha House within the next two years.
