The Scalpel, Office skyscraper in City of London, United Kingdom.
The Scalpel reaches 190 meters in height with a glass facade featuring angular architectural lines along its 38 floors at Lime Street.
Kohn Pedersen Fox Associates designed this commercial tower, which opened in 2018 following a construction period that began in 2013.
The building incorporates four stone relief panels representing earth, air, fire, and water, preserved from the previous Lloyd's building.
The structure contains 37,564 square meters of office space, with W.R. Berkley occupying one-quarter as their European headquarters.
The offset core design creates large uninterrupted floor plates while maintaining clear views toward St Paul's Cathedral from multiple vantage points.
