Part of a leading, smart community united by purpose.

Sitting within the wider Newcastle Helix site, the earthy copper tones of The Spark have been influenced by the adjacent Ryder designed building so that both buildings read as one piece; we tread the fine line of incorporating contrasting elements in the two buildings to avoid monotony and give each their individual identity, whilst maintaining a fluent design.
