Ogilvie Construction is proud to have completed 30 Semple Street, Edinburgh’s latest prime Grade A office building.
Developed by Corran Properties for CBRE Investment Management, it delivers 57,000 sq ft of high-quality workspace designed for modern businesses.
With sustainability at its core, the redevelopment retained the building’s original frame, preventing 3,300 tons of CO2 emissions—over 50% of the carbon that would have been used in a full reconstruction. The new office space replaces fossil fuel boilers with clean heating and features abundant natural light, operable windows, and first-class amenities, including cycling facilities, EV charging, secure changing areas, and premium showers.
Now standing at eight floors, the building also boasts two additional levels and a stunning rooftop terrace with panoramic views over Edinburgh. With cutting-edge energy-efficient systems, contemporary design, and a focus on well-being, 30 Semple Street sets a new benchmark for sustainable workspaces in the city.
It is the first BREEAM ‘Outstanding’ design-stage, NABERS and AIR Score ‘Platinum’ accredited office building in Scotland and is designed to function in accordance with the UK Green Buildings Council Net Zero Carbon Buildings Framework definition.
