155 Milton Park

The UK headquarters for DC Payments, the second largest independent deployer of ATMs in the world, consolidates the administrative and production operations of the business into a single, purpose-built facility on the bustling Milton Park in Oxfordshire.

The administrative functions are housed within a two-storey volume, with open plan, cellular offices and meeting rooms overlooking the river and farmland to the north. The main double-height space is topped by a north light running the length of the building. This not only floods the interior with daylight, but creates an interesting roof profile which mediates between the office and production sections of the building.   The façade was designed to reflect the bold colours within DC Payments’ branding, with expressive vertical strips of burnt orange rainscreen cladding enlivening the frontage at the main approach to the building.  

A double-height production facility is positioned at the rear with high bay access for deliveries / dispatch. The production area includes areas for high bay racking, equipment maintenance and workshops. A mezzanine provides additional storage space and a document filing room.
