The Bike Storage latest collaboration at Queens Quay, Bristol, highlights how integrated, high-quality cycle storage can elevate a modern office environment, supporting active travel while aligning perfectly with a building’s sustainability and design goals.

The Project
Queens Quay is a major £5.6m refurbishment and reconfiguration of a four-storey office building in the heart of Bristol, led by AWW Architects. The project focused on open, light-filled spaces, upgraded wellness facilities and strong sustainability credentials, including BREEAM Excellent and Wired Score Platinum.

A key part of the brief was encouraging active travel and supporting a healthy lifestyle. To deliver this, the reception was extended and new showers, changing rooms and basement cycle storage were introduced as core amenities.

What Was Delivered
Working closely with the client and architect, they supplied and installed a tailored suite of British-made, BREEAM-compliant products — all colour-matched to complement the building’s clean, modern aesthetic.

Sustainability & Design
