St Pancras International
The re-development of St Pancras station is the incredible £800 million architectural restoration and extension of a unique London landmark.
Yannedis were the architectural ironmongers on the restoration part of the project.
"We involved Yannedis early in the process and that was vital to the success of the scheme. Yannedis did not simply put in a price and wait for instruction. They were closely involved in the project, working hand-in-hand with Arup's architectural team." Alistair Lansley, Architect, ARUP.
